Hey,

Yes, I was just wondering how some planes could land on that day. As I heard on the ATIS, wind was 300' at 15kts, direct and variable between 220' and 250' gusting up to 30kts. Visibility was 1400m as at 0730/0800Z.

According to what I heard there were lots of traffic build up over NYLON. My question is during this time some aircraft choosed to land while some made go-around or flew to a different airport ? Did they hand-fly or did they use autopilots to land ? Was there any wind-shear ?

Thanks, just curious !

Best Regards,
