FLIGHT TERRORS

>> Passengers vomited as pilot attempted to reach the runway

>> Captain eventually forced to abort landing and divert tó Manchester

A MUM has told of her mid-air flight terror in the midst of Storm Isha as passengers screamed and vomited in fear. 

Kirsty Findlay, 40, and her husband Mark, 42, were on their way home from a trip to Amsterdam when their EasyJet f light was battered by high winds.

Stomach-churning footage shared by the mum of one showed the plane shaking and rocking as it attempted to reach the runway at Glasgow airport at about 7pm on Sunday.

Kirsty, from Irvine, said the experience was so petrifying that Mark sat praying in his seat as other passengers around them threw up in sick bags.

She told the Record: “It felt like the wind was in control of the plane.

“We felt helpless. It was really frightening. There were people around screaming, crying and being sick. 

“My husband was actually praying out loud.”

Kirsty said the flight’s pilot said the weather conditions were the worst he had experienced in all his years of flying.
