This is intriguing.
The aircraft goes into an ‘emergency climb’ and avoids a hilltop by 150 feet. 155 passengers don’t notice…or if they do, they don't say anything. Sure!
Yet only a month ago, we had the news reporting a near collision at Hamilton Island, as an aircraft that had just become airborne, banked to intercept the outbound route, scaring the life out of some passengers who saw another aircraft in the circuit with them.
This post came from a ski forum. That should indicate how accurate it is (not).
