Yes I do. I go back to the earlier question I asked that wasn’t answered. In another situation, a controller witnesses an approach in crosswinds that they thought looked dodgy, left the pilot to it, then they had a tailstrike/went off the runway. Would you now expect the controller in the future to send around any approach they thought looked marginal, just because one went wrong once? It was in the controllers power to do something about it, so they now have a responsibility to make that decision on the pilots behalf?
