Flight 773 Prestwick to Dublin Saturday

HenrikL · 2014-02-24 11:22:17

I was on the 17.40 Prestick to Dublin flight (Ryanair 773). Anyone out there know what happened as we had an aborted landing then a bumpy enough circle followed by a hellish landing. Weather when we landed wasnt too bad either

Could have been a CB near the airport as you approached
