747 Emergency Landing - Qantas jet
When a ten foot hole appeared in the side of the fuselage of a Qantas plane, the pilot was forced to make an emergency landing in Manila, after dropping swiftly to 10,000 feet from a cruising altitude of 30,000 feet.
At this point, one of the passengers reached for their mobile phone and started filming the landing. It wouldn't have been my first reaction, but it makes for interesting footage.
The applause that breaks out upon landing reminds me of those holiday flights one used to take in the eighties.
