Typhoon Shanshan continues its sweep – Planes miss landing or land with great difficulty
Several planes were forced to abort their landing at an airport in Japan due to the sweeping typhoon Shanshan, from which the whole country is being tested.
In particular, several aircraft were forced to abort their landings at Fukuoka Airport in Japan after being hit by strong winds due to Typhoon Shanshan.
A plane finally manages to land after much effort.
On Aug. 29, a #Boeing 737-800 of #JejuAir was struggling to land on runway 34 of #Fukuoka airport, #Japandue to strong winds because of #TyphoonShanshan. The aircraft performed a go-around and finally landed a few minutes later on runway 16.

The typhoon, which has weakened to a severe tropical storm, is one of the strongest to hit the country in decades.
More than five million people in the southern part of the country have been told to evacuate, with Japan on red alert.
At least four people have been killed and hundreds of thousands of homes remain without power.
The storm is expected to reach Tokyo this weekend.
