Aircraft

Storm Erik was pretty vicious when it passed through Ireland and the UK on Friday.

It made aircraft operations difficult at a number of airports.

This video was taken at Gatwick (just south of London) and I understand that an Emirates A380 had two attempts at landing there before diverting to Manchester.

He was a bit tight on fuel by all accounts.

The sight of the runway ahead through the side window must be pretty unnerving.
