We spend 2h25m in the air, we had to return back to Faro. A normal flight is about 30 minute,Faro-lisbon. The wind was so hight that in the first attempt the wheels touched down very hard for 3 times and we take off. This video is from the second attempt. The pilot want to try the third land but we didn´t let them. Yes, inside the plane we know whats going on,people crying, I thought I die and close my eyes, but here I´m.

well they probbly added power a while ago but it take the engines 5 seconds to spool up and onther 3 to to 5 seconds to go to full power. If you would go and pour all that fuel in their there would be a "flameout"

those crosswinds can be a bitch

go around should have been started much earlier. look how close the right wheel is to touching down as he starts his climb. very unstable approach. (i realzie the winds were very high) but he should have started the go around proceedure much earlier

where the landing part...

Definitely a smart move to miss that approach. That would've been the landing gear on such a heavy crosswind. At the same time the pilots corrections werent very professional.

Smart move on the pilots part anymore and he'd be taking the slide off the plane.
