why....
does it seems like nearly every item goes tits up (personality clash) after a few posts... anyway thishowitshappened:
A320 reports established on the ILS to tower. Tower clears A320 to land.
(about 60 seconds latter)
A320 observed at about 500 feet above runway elevation. A320 gear up and descending.
(about 25 seconds latter)
A320 at about 200 feet above runway elevation. A320 gear up and descending. Tower says Kestrel 374 check wheels.
(the tower guy never said go around)
(about 5 seconds latter)
A320 nose starts to pitch up.
(about 5 seconds latter)
A320 nose pitched up more steeply. A320 tail goes within about 100 feet of the runway (A320 tail was about one third the length of the fuselage above the runway). A320 climbing.
(about 8 minutes latter)
A320 lands normally on the same runway. Does that sound like a normal go around to you? I dont see anywhere where BIK has put **** on the A320 crew. He did a lot of research after this to find out how it could happen.
