As bad luck would have it, I am laid up for a few days with a crook leg and therefore drawn to Pprune...
In regard to Alpha Floor, I assumed that they commenced the go around at the minima, which for Cat 1, should be above 100' AGL.
In regard to Jetstar, I have only related the facts as they have been widely reported elsewhere. This includes in the offices at CASA.
I have no desire or need to join Jetstar and no hatred of Jetstar.
Many posters have highlighted the problems created by the Qantas/ Impluse/ Ansett, triangle of destruction, yet you allow them their say. Why attack me?
While I do not agree with the Jetstar practice of "TOGA TAP", I do agree that AFTER a positive climb is established, flap retracted one stage, gear retracted, the thrust could be reduced.
What ever happened to "flying the aircraft??"
