For about the second time in what must be getting on for a thousand airline flights, I was on a flight that did a go around at Heathrow last Sunday. Half expecting screams or at least comments from the other slf, I was a bit surprised that none of the people around me even seemed to notice until there was a PA from the captain explaining that the guy in front wasn't going to have vacated the runway in time.
Did make me wonder just how much that cost BA in fuel for a 744 go around.
