I don't think anyone is trying to minimise the potential of a collision landing on a taxiway ?
I found it hard to comprehend how the Airbus landing with two professional pilots on a disused airfield could do so?
Ok some way out it's understandable but surely two sets of eyes must have picked up visual clues that this was a disused and not an active runway
Yet they landed off that
There is a huge similarity
Commercial airline mistakes were used to combat the tone of the thread relating to his age and to identify why even experienced professional pilots will do such crazy things under pressure
The airline examples were used to highlight a problem which works across the board rather than just to the inexperienced or old GA pilot
