Many of the parking lot/beer garden 'experts' that chime in from time to time about alledged poor aircraft performance/pilot handling skills, would do well to actually read an authoritive publication about same, thereby increasing their limited knowledge.
So when are you going to read up about the results of the Cally Tri* dear chap. As has been pointed out to you, the inquiry found no reason to blame pilot error, a fact that you seem unwilling / unable to accept.
You also seem to conveniently ignore the fact that some of the 'experts' you are quick to dismiss actually possess quite a lot of authoritive publications on aircraft performance, and could probably quote them chapter and verse to you.

Anyway, back to the facts of this post, PIA were apparently told to go-round by ATC, an instruction the crew over-ruled. As has been pointed out by numerous people, if this was an issue it will be reported through the normal channels. End of.
