IF YOU’RE AFRAID of flying, you may want to look away now.

The weather was pretty bad in Bilbao this week. Winds hit around 40mph, making landing at the airport in the northern Spanish city far more difficult than usual.

As this video shows, a number of pilots braved the strong winds and managed to bring their airplanes down (often at some strange angles). Others tried to land but were blown away from the runway. Yikes.
