For the last time,
It is not ideal to line up any aircraft while another aircraft is on 2 mile finals, but the alternative in lagos was to have a 732 holding short of the runway and a potential obstacle to the learjet on finals. Remember folks, the learjet was on an emergancy approach and infact ended up losing control in the end. Thus it could so easily have slammed into the 732. Only chance prevented this. ATC cleared the 732 for take off to facilitate the learjet on finals. The learjet lost control according to this article, which further proves that ATC was correct to clear the 732 away. Would you like to be told to hold short of the runway knowing that the aircraft approaching you is going to crash ? Wake up
