Ah yes, a great bit of flying by Captain Tim Barnby. Who says you don't have to be a pilot to fly an Airbus. :ok:

That's old!! I know it was 5th Nov 1997, as I was going that night to CDG with BA and the delays were VERY big. It was also bucketing with rain. It was fine work by the flight crew, cabin crew and ground support.
It also proved why we ought to have an extra runway or two at EGLL. Hhmm, I think I'll start a thread about that ...
