A tense landing was captured on camera as a pilot was forced to come in to land sideways due to very strong winds .
The Ryanair jet was headed to Madeira Airport when it encountered intense turbulence. In what must have been a nerve-wracking start to a holiday for passengers, the plane can be seen struggling to right itself on course against the huge gusts of wind.
In footage captured by Madeira Aviation , the aircraft shudders as it comes down to the ground, before the wind causes it to veer to the side just metres away from touching down on the runway. The nose is left pointing towards the nearby hills before the pilot expertly gets things back under control, The Mirror reports .
