THIS is the terrifying moment a plane aborted landing at the very last minute as it battled strong cross winds and almost crashed into the runway.

Captured by videographer Radko Nasinec, the passenger plane was attempting to land at Václav Havel Airport in Prague, Czech Republic.
Passengers were left grabbing their seats as the plane swayed back and forth as it battles large gusts of wind as it prepared to land.
