"get real" - Nice to see courtesy and reason are such strong points for you........


The poster claimed originally that the "319 made a flyover at 100feet" - not a go around. If we go around we simply stop going down and start going up! I took this to mean the a/c was doing a flyby to show off the new a/c in new colours etc.. Maybe I have misunderstood. However if it was really some sort of low level fly past then sorry but was that approved by the Authority? Passengers pay us to minimise the risk not increase it. If the original comment actually referred to a simple G/A then fine. These things happen. Just a happy coincidence that it was the new A319? If however it was actually a low level (100'?) flight down the runway, with passengers on board, then yes I am serious, it's completely inappropriate.

Trying to be "real".
