definitely not a good thing to see while undertaking flight certification...  :-[

thank god the plane makes it safely on the second landing attempt but that wing scraping the ground didn't look good at all.. couldn't have sounded or felt good for the passengers!

Pretty incredible.  I used to play soccer over there in my youth....back in the days when there was a west and east Germany.

I can't believe that thing didn't crash

happens more than you'd think. that was all on the pilot and ground control. when the crosswind is that strong, it's probably safer to divert to a different nearby airport if it's consistenly gusting.  Thank you transportation engineering and Dr. D.

What'd you get on your Airport Project?

Looking at the airport's runway configuration. They have one N-S runway. An East-West runway would really prevent that situation.
