Oh come on! Give it a break. We all know how dramatic some journalists can be and we always end up with threads like this, stating the "bleedin' obvious".
Just contrast the two articles linked to in the first post and you can see which one is realistic and which one has been written up by a lesser cousin of a Baboon. ( Apologies to Baboons).
FlyGlobespan B757 has engine surge after take off. Crew decide to return to Sanford and circle for several hours to burn off fuel. Uneventful landing and orderly disembarkation of pax. End of story.
If you want to have the usual pigfest of crap journalistic standards then please go to Jet Blast forum.
