Description

This plane landing at Birmingham Airport made a dramatic landing as wave vortexes formed from its wings. Wake Vortex Turbulence</a> is the technical term for the phenomenon, which is caused by the difference in pressure above and below the wings. The pressure difference triggers a roll-up of airflow behind the wing, creating the swirling vortexes. Credit: YouTube/flugsnug
