Give me a break. Does anyone believe one word of this farcical story from the Daily Mail?

Brilliant stuff. Seems the article said it was an A380 originally before getting changed as well :D

Was in the Telegraph as well, sounds like a load of crap. It must be one hell of a plane that it missed if it had to climb 10,000ft.
Stories like that really make me laugh

Reading between the lines - anyone reckon it was a go around?
There's no mention of the time delay between the child in the cockpit and the climb.. it could be tens of minutes.

I particularly like the name of one of the people that commented on the article:

Also serves as a nice bit of free advertising for the passenger who is pictured in the article, who just happens to be the boss of a travel website.
