We could discuss this all day and seemingly go round and round.
My point was very basic and simple.
Clearly ALLAH did not do his or her research. That is not the mark of a professional pilot.
The comment made by ALLAH was that an alternate should have been carried because YSNF has a single runway. This is obviously incorrect and adds nothing to the debate. If he or she had commented on the potential risks of an aerodrome with intersecting runways then great. That would prompt us all to consider these factors.
Was I tough in my reply to ALLAH? I would say "yes".
Maybe, just maybe, ALLAH will be really p...ed of with me and will be just that little bit more determined not to make the same type of mistake ever again. It just might help in what I sincerely hope will be a long and enjoyable incident free career.
