A major aviation disaster was narrowly averted at Indonesia’s Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Tangerang after a Batik Air's Boeing 737 aircraft encountered extreme weather while attempting to land.
The scary incident has been captured on camera and happened amid torrential rain and powerful winds. The video has gone viral across social media platforms.
The video shows the plane tilting sharply to one side, with a wing coming close to hitting the ground. The moment sparked panic among the onlookers at the airport.
Flight PK-LDJ experienced severe turbulence while touching down on the runway.
Despite difficult conditions, the pilot managed to regain control of the aircraft in time and steered it back on course before bringing it to a safe stop.
The skillful move averted what could have turned into a catastrophic crash involving another Boeing plane just days after the Air India tragedy in Ahmedabad.
The visuals have sparked discussions about the increasing frequency of weather-related aviation risks.
On June 12, a London-bound Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner plane crashed moments after taking off from the Ahmedabad airport, killing 241 people on board and leaving just one survivor. The plane crashed into a hostel block of BJ Medical College in Meghani Nagar, killing 19 on the ground.
