“Blade Air told the Daily Mail the hard landing was likely caused by choppy water from passing boats and Saturday night’s thunderstorm.

‘There were a lot of ferries in the vicinity and there may have been wind and the last second,’ a source at the company said.

‘The waves they create can be a problem as you try to land on the water.’

Blade said the impact cracked one of the plane’s struts - which connects the pontoons to the body of the plane - which also caused damage to one of the pontoons.”
