Kenya Airways - Ndola, Zambia

Heard Kenya Airways 737 either landed too deep or conducted a go around at low altitude into Ndola, Zambia a few days ago? Anyone have any details what may have happened?

Go/around in Ndola...

If there was a go around in Ndola, it proves that the Captain made a good decision. In most companies, a go around is considered as a NORMAL maneuver, which DOESN'T have to be justified in a post flight report, as it is sometimes needed for safety or unstabilized final approach or any other reason ( i.e. a rejected landing ).

Happy landings.
