IMHO these videos are shocking. No, I'm not a spotter, just a simple former Navy fighter pilot (some 2000 Hrs on Starfighter 104G), than FO, SFO,CPT on Boing 737,727,747 and in between Airbus 310-200/300, A 300-600ER. Watching some of the videos, perspective high or low, right or left, slope up or down, my blood is freezing.
May be, I lost the kick for the chicken game?
Those fellows of TAP I know, who I met in LIS,OPO or SIM in FRA were responsible professionals and exceptional nice characters.
We should be grateful, that this dangerous mistake did not end in a disastrous fireball.
I’m sure that this Captain will remember his action for the rest of his life. If he upgrades to A340, good luck for his remaining career.
Regards
