...I don't remember doing it, but at the moment of impact I must have pulled the throttles back...
In a moment of panic, you do strange things. It is likely that the Middleton Ghost's last living thought, having landed a Meteor on one and realised he was far too fast to stop on the MSG runway, was: "I'll have to 'go around' - and tried !

We all know what happened to him. Cpl Jones was right: "Don't Panic !"

Do not try this at home (or ever !)
