Go-arounds to be scrapped at LHR

The BBC made us aware last night go-arounds are a very risky business and with that in mind they are no longer to be practiced at LHR.

To prevent the possiblity of a mid-air collision over london, all aircraft WILL land no matter what the circumsances eg. many other planes on the runway/broken down tug on runway/escaped animals running wildly around LHR as if its the serenghetii.

We hope this instills confidence in a clearly unsafe pastime.
