To the original poster
Please forgive us all, but as has been said before, this is a normal operational procedure. As a learner I practise these with regularity, so that when the time comes to do it for real, I can without alarm.
The reason for the acidity is that Fleet Streets "finest?" are not averse to banging a post on here in a similar vain, waiting for something boring to come out, and then splashing "Jet in near death incident" across the fromt page, quoting "industry insiders" as the source for the CR*P they write.
What the go around means is that the flight crew exercised good airmanship and judgement, and ultimately did what they are paid and trained for. Thats all, now can we have an end to this sort of post please. Those interested should buy Trevor Thom volume 1, and those trying to make a page 1 out of sod all should buy a ticket to Madrid and join their mates harrasing the Beckhams.
Rant over!!
