Keg, I can understand your frustration on this story, I commented to the Hun ( Herald Sun) that windshear and missed approaches are common occurences. To date these comments have not been published although they have published non relevant comment about Melbourne Airport terminal services. There seems to be a reluctance to air factual commentary which is a odds with their fanciful article. Newspapers tend to rush stories onto the streets without first investigating the veracity of their information; to include at the end of the article a request for eyewitness input is just lazy journalism.
It's quite simple folks, stop reading the newspapers and iNewsCrap.com et al! I haven't read any for quite a while & life is so much easier. I still know what's going on without the propaganda, try it for a while & you might be surprised.
