JohnnyAdam – Beberapa
kapal terbang di seluruh Britain terpaksa membatalkan penda-ratan dan diarahkan
semula ke lapangan terbang lain 100 mph angin mendatangkan malapetaka di negara
ini, memaksa beratus-ratus penerbangan ditunda. Rakaman dramatik pendaratan
gagal Boeing - 777 muncul dalam talian.
Rakaman
amatur telah muncul seorang Emirates Boeing - 777 dari Dubai cuba mendarat angin
silang di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Birmingham pada hari Khamis, sebelum menarik
diri pada saat-saat akhir.
“Seperti
yang kita datang ke arah bandar, pesawat bergoncang dalam perjalanan ke bawah .
Kita boleh lihat dari dalam penerbangan monitor yang pesawat itu hanyut ke kiri
seperti yang kita telah mendarat,” penumpang Kevon Miller memberitahu
Birmingham Mail.
“Apabila
pesawat itu mula berlegar kembali dari pendaratan, kita fikir perintis itu
adalah separuh tidur dan hilang kawalan !” Kata penumpang lain, Muhammad
Zulfiqar.
‘Never getting on a plane again’: Jumbo jet
aborts cross wind landing in storm battered UK (VIDEO)
Several
planes across Britain have been forced to abort landings and redirected to
other airports as 100 mph winds wreaked havoc on the country, forcing hundreds
of flights to be delayed. Dramatic footage of a Boeing-777 failed landing appeared
online.
Amateur
footage has emerged of an Emirates Boeing-777 from Dubai attempting a crosswind
landing at Birmingham International Airport on Thursday, before pulling away at
the last moment.
“As we
came towards the city, the plane was shaking on the way down. We could see from
the in-flight monitors that the plane was drifting to the left as we were
landing,” passenger Kevon Miller told the Birmingham Mail.
“When the plane started
hovering back up from the landing, we thought the pilot was half-asleep and had
lost control!” said another passenger, Muhammad Zulfiqar.
Pesawat
itu cuba untuk pergi lebih sekitar, tetapi terpaksa dibawa ke lapangan terbang
Gatwick, di mana penumpang menunggu di dalam, sebelum angin hilang secukupnya
untuk pesawat untuk membuat satu lagi, berjaya, mendarat di Birmingham.
“Jangan
sekali-kali naik kapal terbang lagi. Sepenuhnya di atas mahu menangis,” Miller
disiarkan di Instagram.
2
penerbangan EasyJet ditakdirkan untuk Edinburgh juga dialihkan. Laluan dari
Bristol terpaksa membuat singgah di Newcastle, dan dilanda kilat kerana ia cuba
mendarat, dan jet lain terpaksa mendarat di Glasgow.
Penumpang
dalam kebanyakan lapangan terbang di seluruh utara negara dan Scotland
dinasihatkan untuk sentiasa memeriksa kemas kini status penerbangan berubah
dari jam ke jam.
The
plane attempted to more go-arounds, but had to be redirected to Gatwick
airport, where passengers waited inside, before winds died down sufficiently for
the plane to make another, successful, landing in Birmingham
"Never
getting on a plane again. Full on wanted to cry," Miller posted on
Instagram.
Two
EasyJet flights destined for Edinburgh were also diverted. A route from Bristol
had to make a stopover at Newcastle, and was hit by lightning as it tried to
land, and another jet had to land in Glasgow.
Passengers
in most airports around the north of the country and Scotland are advised to
constantly check updates as flight status is changing from hour to hour.
