Some interesting information from Denis Okan (S7/Globus)

Collecting bricks: repost by lx_photos

1. The first go-around (after which they diverted into the waiting area) performed due to wind shear.

2. Before the second agreed that in case of unsuccessful approach will divert to alternate with climbing to FL80.

3. The second approach manual. Vapp was set at 10 above Vref (according to wind check must be 10 lover, but it did not play a role).

4. A/C was not stabilized at 1000ft and below 1000 after a short discussion, the crew began GA.

5. During the whole approach FO, apparently, was more in the contour than PF. He constantly helped Capt., prompted about actions etc. In general, seems FO was in leading role. PF was tense, he lacked focus, for example, asking questions, if the height set to 8000 at which FO answered - look, here it is.

6. During the GA the Tower transferred them to Area frequency. At this point, FO was trying to suggest something to PF, but apparently the need for communication with the Area distracted him completely.

7. After that, the situation is unfolding rapidly, FO does nothing but tries to convey information to the PF about his incorrect actions, but the time and height was not enough.

Sorry for loose translation
