An airman and one civilian were taken to hospital.

In the clip shared to X, large planes can be seen on the runway as bins, tables, marquees and chairs flip into the air and fly across the ground.

A smaller plane can even be seen being moved by the force of the wind.

The McConnell Air Force Base, located in Wichita, Kansas, in the US, was due to host an airshow expected to draw thousands, as reported by Need To Know.

But on the day of the show, it was reported that high winds of 54mph and rain were expected to hit the state.
