UPS Boeing 747 Makes Wild, Fiery Taipei Landing During Typhoon

I guess we should be happy this didn’t have a worse ending, but my goodness…

The flight took off from Hong Kong at 5:50PM local time, and was making the short 501-mile journey to Taipei. Ordinarily, that flight takes a little over an hour, but yesterday was no ordinary day.

Weather at the airport was bad due to Typhoon Podul, meaning that there were strong wind gusts. Around 70 minutes after takeoff, the plane was near the airport, and entered a brief holding pattern, before attempting to land. Due to the challenging conditions, the pilots executed a go around. They then set up for another approach, before executing a second go around.

A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
