A brave pilot was forced to battle against the winds while attempting to land his plane as gale-force conditions battered Cornwall.
Footage from Land's End airport shows the tiny aircraft being tossed from side to side before eventually bumping down on the runway.
During the tricky manouevre the plane approaches the runway at a perilous tilt with the wings banking dangerously up and down.
The gale-force winds also made for choppy sea conditions with footage showing a yachtsman battling the elements during a heavy storm.
It is known as a side-slip landing and is used by skilled pilots to land in extremely windy conditions.
The videos were filmed yesterday as extreme gusts battered much of Cornwall causing travel chaos as ferries were cancelled and roads blocked by fallen trees.
At the harbour in Newlyn in Cornwall, a sailor was forced to navigate tricky conditions as his vessel nearly hit a wall.
Strong, gusting winds and short, choppy seas created testing conditions with the yachtsman seen strapping everything down to battle the storm.
