Aircraft is forced to abandon first landing due to strong winds at Portugal's Madeira Airport.
A pilot struggled to land a passenger jet in strong winds at Madeira Airport in Portugal on Thursday.

Footage shows the Transavia Boeing plane flying towards the runway before the pilot suddenly lifts the nose of the plane.

The pilot continued to fly the aircraft and then made another attempt at landing.
Almost worthy of the Daily Mail, but this was in the Telegraph, whose journalistic standards seem to be giving the Mail some competition.
