    Ultra-low flying Wizz Air passenger plane shocks onlookers coming in to land at Skiathos airport
    PerthNow August 12, 2022



    Extraordinary footage has emerged of a jumbo jet coming in for landing on a Greek island just metres above the heads of tourists.

    The Wizz Air passenger jet appeared to fly just above onlookers’ heads as it arrived at Skiathos airport in Greece — a location known for its dramatic approach.

    One girl was knocked down by the force of the jet as others shouted in surprise.

    Several tourists filmed the touchdown, which was described as the ‘lowest ever landing’ when the dramatic footage was shared online.

    Some commentators said the short runway required an ultra-low approach, particularly as landing speeds were higher in hot weather.
