767 rough crosswind landing

The storm which crossed the UK on 5th December 2013 hit flights at Birmingham Airport/BHX pretty hard as the crosswind there gusted to at least 45 knots. I filmed four missed approaches (go arounds) - the most yet on one visit. This video is the first of the difficult landings on that day. Several of the pilots reported windshear alarms, and some of the planes really were being thrown around. Note the inboard ailerons thrashing around in the turbulence.
