laxcax23. This is a rumours board so wind your neck in please. Rubbish not. I think one of the incidents referred to happened in October, the ASR is open at the moment. The Captain involved tried to go around after taking over control from the F/O but they touched down during this manoeuver so he decided to stop the go around and stay on the runway?! But he only closed three thrust levers and initiated reverse thrust on those whilst the fourth was trying to supply go around thrust, directional control was lost but at a point on the runway where there was a high speed turnoff....very very fortunate. The other could be where the flaps were damaged on a go around at NRT, though the weather was pretty poor there.
There are incidents all the time here, and the QA department as are the rest of us, are powerless to do anything. Think very carefully before coming, it will only get worse.
