Airport staff watched in horror as the cargo plane flew towards the runway.
The hero pilot managed to alert air traffic control moments before he attempted the incredible manoeuvre.
The quick-thinking pilot released fuel to make the plane lighter as he got the situation under control.
With the runway just feet away he performed an impressive touch-and-go manoeuvre saving the lives of the three crew on board.
As it hits the runway with its back wheels, the pilot forces the nose of the plane into the air.
He performs the wheelie, saving the plane from plunging into the concrete, for around 200ft.
