Britannia - Gerona 14/09/99.
A very well deserved "thumbs up" and congratulations to the crew of this one...
Having seen the aftermath pictures, I think they performed one hell of a job getting it
down.....
The lack of fatalities and low number of injuries is a credit to the professionalism
not only of the flight-crew, but of the cabin-crew as well...
NICE ONE FOLKS!!!!!!!!!

Shag-Fest, maybe you should stop talking out of your a**e and wait until the facts are known. From what I know these guys did a great job under the circumstances. From what I can gleen from all the posts, they made an approach onto 02 at GRN went around and were asked by ATC to divert to BCN only to be faced with worstening weather there so therefore made an approach onto 20, this is only my supposition. The METARS & TAFS did not seem all that bad for the area that night, although a few cb's had been forcast. I therefore suggest you keep your childish comments to yourself. I see you put your occupation down as a Captain in your profile, well try acting like one.

Free state bandit (and you CALL my name!) Maybe you should take your own advice in this case. I did say lets wait for the report, but I think you fail to grasp to what happened here, I am all for supporting my collegues, but in this case I will refrain until I hear the real evidence, that is all I am saying, and I have a sneaky suspiscion that I will be proved right...

Shag-Fest, you cannot make a statement doubting the actions of the crew concerned and then in the same breath say lets wait for the AAIB report, that's a contradiction.
However, as you quite rightly said, lets just wait for the AAIB report. Then and only then can one start pointing fingers if at all.

Of course you are entitled to voice your opinion Shag Fest, it's just a shame that it is based purely on speculation. I hope you don't find yourself in a similar predicament to the Brittania crew, and if you do, I hope that some other a..ehole doesn't see fit to pass such ridiculous comments as you have.
You do your profession no credit.
