But! to orbit on short final in the circuit is a bad idea
That's what I was referring to.
This sort of thing had absolutely nothing to do with the BanKock accident.
The F/O had initiated a go around becasue the approach was going pear shaped. Had she been allowed to continue the go around, this event would never have even made the evening news.
However the captain had other ideas. We all know the rest.
It's the "never go around no matter what" attitude that I was referring to.
