Plane's wing grazes runway before pilot aborts landing

If you're an window-seat kinda gal, this is one flight you can be thankful you weren't on. On Saturday, a flight from Munich to Hamburg with 137 passengers on board took a turn for the terrifying when high winds tipped the plane, scraping the left wing along the runway.

Scary Landing AttemptAmateur video shows the plane approaching the tarmac, wobbling from side to side and finally scarping along the runway. The pilot managed to stabilize the plane and come around again for a second landing attempt. He succeeded and the plane landed safely - no injuries.

"As we were about to touchdown, a gust of wind pressed the left wing towards the ground," the 39-yearold German pilot in a statement on CNN News.

"We pulled up immediately. A maneuver we practice in training very often."

That's one hell of a pilot if you ask us. After watching the video, we're absolutely certain if we'd been on that plane, we'd have to change our underwear afterwards.

"It's extreme - I haven't yet seen anything like that at a German airport, the pilot was a real hero," said Axel Raab, a spokesperson for German Flight Safety.

Airline spokesman, Wolfgang Weber, said a fin on the left wing scraped the tarmac but damage to the plane was minimal and not structural. He said the plane is already back in service.

Have you ever been on a flight that left you shaking like a leaf? Did it affect how, when or even if you'd fly again?
