Awful... when I last flew in (with Air Asia) the landing was definitely one of the worst I've been on, horrible weather, people were even screaming in the back. I wasn't too shaken since I've been on a few nailbiters before but I did have a moment of horror when we were just coming down to ground and a gust of wind threw the plane sideways, I really thought we were going to touch down with the wing first, but the pilot managed to right the plane. Then he didn't put it down for what seemed like ages, I was wondering if he was going to do a flyover and try again, or else we were going to run out of runway... eventually the wheels touched down and it was ok. There was applause, which is unusual on a regular scheduled flight. I think we were all a bit shaky at the knees coming out.

Which is why my thoughts go out to all those on board this flight
