Nearly stoofed in there 10 years or so ago.
It had been a very long night and we were coasting-in on NVG in the wee small hours in driving rain. Handling pilot was happy he had St Mawgan in sight and was positioning for a straight-in, I was busy putting the coffee cups away and other esssential pre-landing checks.
I don't know what made me look up but I somehow knew something wasn't right and I couldn't put my finger on it. A quick glimpse under the goggles at all those red lights was pretty convincing.
I learnt about flying.....
