Watch as Emirates A380 makes an incredible vertical landing in high winds

Dubai - The plane bounces as it makes its first contact with the tarmac.

An Emirates superjumbo, the Airbus A380, recently made a scary but safe landing in Dusseldorf, Germany, under heavy wind conditions.

A video of the landing, uploaded on YouTube by Cargospotter, shows the Emirates superheavy descending steadily for touchdown, when, a few metres above the tarmac, it is jostled by heavy winds and can be seen straying from its intended landing path.

Highly trained Emirates pilots, undeterred by the gusts, safely touch the plane down, even as the aircraft bounces a little on the first contact, and continues to veer side to side while it slows down.

"Emirates flight EK 55 on October 5, 2017 landed safely in Dusseldorf under strong crosswind conditions. At no point was the safety of the passengers and crew onboard compromised," an Emirates spokesperson told Khaleej Times.

The EK 55 flies from Dubai to Dusseldorf once everyday, and departs at 8.30am from Terminal 3. It completes its journey in roughly six hours and 30 minutes.
