This is the heart-stopping moment an Aer Lingus Regional flight landed in horrific weather conditions at Donegal Airport.

The plane arriving from Dublin can be seen dipping from side to side in strong winds before landing safely at Carrickfinn.

Thankfully all 17 passengers as well as the crew were uninjured before the plane taxied to the airport terminal.

Stobart Air, which operates the flight, confirmed the plane did partially leave the runway before realigning.

A full investigation into the incident is being carried out by airport authorities.

Simply click on the video to see the landing.
