A few years ago, returning into EMA on a Monday morning from a heavy weekend in Dublin, as the GF of the time was working there, I was on a BM Fokker 70 and we had 2 GAs because of because of very low cloud / poor vis /rain wind etc... Bloody awful in fact going down the M1 afterwards. Only one glimpse of the ground on the first attempt, the Piano Keys, just as power was being applied.
I still remember thinking, after the second attempt (forgive me guys & gals I'm a mere PAX), isn't it the third time it all goes wrong? Please... feel free to div to BHX!!!
Anyhow, needless to say, we all did arrive and safe and sound, and without a murmur throughout from any of the PAX. Perhaps they too were nursing horrendous hangovers...
Well impressed with the fellas at the sharp end. Cheers guys
