To be fair I have seen approaches like this in almost every airline. Some end up in the news, some do not.
What bothers me the most with Air France is the denial. You will soon see a public statement from their marketing department saying that the crew "were heroes that saved a potential dangerous situation by performing a go around in the last minute"
Look back at every accident they have had and the arrogance and the denial is stunning. THAT is why they are on my no fly list.
