WIZ.
Yes you are quite correct Wiz, in my world the TRE still does the LOFT and also the following CHECK unlike in UAE where a different guy does these items by regulation.It is what it is.
The EK 777 accident has a very close similarity to the Orient Thai MD83 crash in 2009 at Phuket.On their third attempt at landing in quite harsh weather, the copilot called (as PF) GO AROUND at below 100 feet aal then released the controls to the Captain who correctly called for the go around flaps and gear up, but even though he pushed TOGA on the autothrottles and raised the nose to the go-around attitude they were so close
to the ground that the thrust retarded to IDLE as it would normally and the airplane just ran out of speed and mushed into the ground then weather cocked to the embankment to the north where they died.Sad.Peter
