Side window view

I was as I said down the back on the left side.
The vis from the window was good, and as I said, I have never as a pax seen Algerceras that close.
Was the overflight of the town, before or after the miss. As from where I was sitting it looked as if the miss was normal, and the "late" turn to finals might be the "over town" segment.
Rainboe, I was asking if you had more "direct" information that might be relevent, and not wish to post here.
Herbie, I would agree that I was not looking out of the front window, but as stated have flown as pax and operating crew the aproach enough times.
AGP is now approved as a direct diversion (I suspect a weather only approval) by the Spanish. (I assume they are JAA, just like the UK.) except for the open sky aspect.

As already asked, was there an incident, lets wait and see. The report will provide the offical answer.
