Mr. Chevvron,

That - ''once they start descent, are committed to landing as the engines take too long to spool up (with a danger of inducing a compressor stall) for a go-around'' - is interesting stuff. No visuals at minimums/windshear/runway incursion/runway change/etc.,etc.,etc. invariably ends in unfortunate headlines? Must be quite an intimidating machine to rumble around in if going around is not an option
