Well, no one came blame the crew for deciding that was enough for today and head back to Frankfurt. Can they?

With so many of these videos on you tube often sensationalised it would be nice if the media occasionally mentioned how well the plane is protected from serious harm by the awesome power , and it is awesome power even on a 737 that can shove the aircraft up and away from danger. In fact as we have seen to some extent the greatest danger sometimes is not being able to control the aircraft as it powers away from the ground. The media cannot seem to get their head around that what really was a risky business in a piston prop or early jet with a horrid spool up lag is a far far less dangerous situation today
