To continue to say they thought they were on the runway is disengenuous to say the least.
They never said we did the GA because we saw we were landing on the taxiway.
Again, denial of the simple facts.
You seem to be going round in circles.
Are you still asserting that the crew denied they were on the taxiway ?
Given the FACTS......
Yes
Insert
I swear I was on the RWY, I did call in and ask why there were aircraft on the runway,
I did not hear UAL on radio say that I was on the taxiway,
I passed over one aircraft on the runway, then
I did not see that I passed 3 feet over aircraft with that just turned its landing lights on...
but I decided to do a go around because I was not on the taxiway, but something just did not seem right.
Glad I had 2 days to practice my story and , ooopsies, no CVR.
It is interesting that pilots want to claim they are responsible for the aircraft....until something happens, then the blame game surfaces.
