2nd attempt at docking?
I thought they always let the ferry come in under autopilot at full speed?

Seriously though I concur with you. Heard on radio that terrified pax didn't know if they would live when a Q jet applied full power and banked steeply up.(their words, not mine).

Gets up my nose how much sway and power the media hold over the country.

cure 2

camera in nose of aircraft to show pax that conducting a goround is a really good idea
