Ok then.

I won’t ‘kneejerk’ (nice try with the loaded language), but yes, I will go around. Because in around 35 years of aviation, I’ve never once encountered a go-round call without a very good reason. Because I have reason to trust the ability and judgement of my fellow crew members. And because even though we’re in clear conditions at 1500’, maybe there’s a flock of geese or another aircraft or something else that I haven’t seen and they have. So I’ll happily go round and we’ll talk about why later on.

That do you?
