Thumbs down

I fully agree with what many have said - i.e. make a passenger PA as soon as is practicle ... I always do this myself - it calms veryone down.

HOWEVER, the travelling public DON'T require an explanation for every manouevre we fly , and there is no reason to educate them on the finer points of a go-around.
We (the public) do not question a surgeon, nor a lawyer, nor the bus driver when he has to brake sharply ...

Just allow the professionals to do their job for chr1st sake !

If you don't trust your pilots, DON'T GET ON THE AIRPLANE
