Most DANGEROUS AIRPORTS in the WORLD and the most extreme, incredible and expensive airplanes!Part 3

7:40 AM

This is the incredible moment a passenger plane aborts landing despite its wheels touching down on the runway.
The incident was filmed on a rainy day at Manchester Airport, and shows an Aer Lingus plane rocking from side to side on approach in the windy conditions.
Believed to have flown in from Dublin, Ireland, the ATR 72 aborts landing at the last second and flies back into the air.
It is the second time the filmmaker has been on hand to spot an Aer Lingus plane abort at the last second, having captured footage of a similar incident back in October 2014.
Commenting on the footage, CogAviation writes: 'Crikey! That would have been a little scary,' while Rudi van Goch adds: 'That was looking pretty dangerous but pilots kept their heads and went around.'
A spokesperson for Manchester Airport told MailOnline Travel: 'Yesterday a flight performed a go around upon landing, which is a common, standard procedure and can be elected either by the pilot or air traffic control for a variety of reasons.
'The flight landed safely and anyone with specific queries should contact the airline directly.'
MailOnline has contacted Aer Lingus for comment, and is awaiting a response.
