well i actually happen to live 1 mile from the threshold of the runway, and i did see the low approach. it was nothing spectacular, believe me. yes, it was lower than normal and it was a very abbrieviated approach, but the rubbish about it being '20 feet above peoples houses' is just people with no knowledge of flying overreacting. in short, nothing major and the plane was NEVER in any visible danger. people must also factor in the airport is on top of a 500ft hill, and the city is down in a valley.....
