Breathtaking new video of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) officials flying into the “eye” of Hurricane Melissa, which caused massive destruction and left 29 dead in the Caribbean.

This time, the footage is not from the seats of the aircraft but from the cockpit.

As seen in the video, the flight is being conducted with almost zero visibility through a wall of clouds.

And despite the violent turbulence that nearly threw the pilot and co-pilots out of their seats, the aircraft crew is handling the situation calmly without showing the slightest sign of fear.

Ever wondered what it’s like to fly into the eye of a hurricane?

NOAA and their trusty plane, Kermit, just gave us a front-row seat to the chaos inside the eye of #Melissa….. and let’s just say, this was no smooth flight. ✈️ pic.twitter.com/zk7QKcbgo8

“I love it when these videos are posted because they make me look like a he@@@ who hates minor turbulence,” one commenter wrote on X. “I am absolutely impressed by how stable and powerful these planes are, safely carrying such large and heavy ‘balls’ as the pilots,” another added.

“What guts these guys have!” added a third, “I’ll never complain about the turbulence during my flight again… ever,” pledged a fourth.

An earlier video captured the violent shaking of the aircraft carrying the U.S. agency’s hurricane hunters.

That footage showed the aircraft shaking and objects falling to the floor, with the passengers, however, generally remaining calm.

“Is everyone OK?” asked one of the occupants of the NOAA aircraft when the turbulence was over.
