I rarely post, choosing to respect the decisions made by the individuals involved because none of us speculators are at the controls at the time these events happen.
However…. when I watched the video it appeared to me that the PF was looking to grease it on. Then, as the distance markers flashed by, my opinion changed to the wind must have kicked in and things were going south quick. Nevertheless, unless there were extenuating circumstances that we don’t know about, a GA should have been called for.
