## Key points

- SQ213 went around during its approach to Perth.
- The A350-900 landed safely on its second attempt.
- Winds at Perth Airport reached 32km/h.

## Summary

Singapore Airlines flight SQ213 abandoned its approach to Perth Airport on Saturday after the aircraft appeared to tilt to the right, bringing one wing close to the ground. The Airbus A350-900 climbed away and landed safely on its second attempt, illustrating how a go-around allows pilots to stop a landing when conditions are unsuitable.

Video of the approach was shared online by Chris Perry, whose sister was on board; he said high winds prompted the manoeuvre. Weather reports recorded winds of up to 32km/h around the time, and flight-tracking data showed the plane landed at about 12.35pm. A go-around is a standard safety procedure, though viewers differed over how concerning the footage appeared.
