T fly go-around at EMA today
 

On leaving EMA today by car saw Tfly763 at 300ft before going round at having another go. Any ideas?

are you not embarrased leaving posts like this 757pilot? next will be "pilot seen going into toilet, any ideas?"

Bearcat I asked a simple question regarding an event I saw today. If you have nothing pleasant to say then remain quiet.

Bearcat, I don't think 757pilot has anything to be embarrassed about. You, on the other hand...

nothing unusual about go-arounds, busier you are, tighter the gaps, more chance it just doesnt work-or crew may not have been happy with the final phase of the approach-does happen!

If any of our children would like the thread copied to JB so they can be witty and clever with it there, let me know. Otherwise 2 options:

Answer the question or leave it alone:mad:
(Last two contributors excused.:D )

757pilot - Don't know for sure but would suspect it was down to aircraft ahead still on runway. The weather was good today and they are usually on ILS when 27 is in use so unlikely to be an alignment issue.

reasons for go-around
 

i catered that aircraft today, was concerned to the reasons for its go-around, maybe it was getting confirmation by the tower over its landing gear (but that sounds too serious and there was no big deal). I reckon it just had a bad approach and so carried out a missed approach. The thomson fly wasnt late and no probs were reported on ground that i know of.

757Pilot, it was the 757 not the 763.

No problems with the gear/"bad approach"/ATC etc...

The go-around was due to a large flock of crows on short finals.

P.S. Such a shame when people try to be funny and fail. :rolleyes:

It's slightly disconcerting when a 75 driver thinks a 75 is a 76 !

Was the "large flock of crows on short finals" able to land safely, or did they perform a go-around too?

Were they squawking?

Sorry, I'll get my coat.

Its ok so far, boys and girls - keep it humorous and we'll be ok.:ok:

Did it come in with one "feathered"?

That's why I had to clean the car again!

Ah good so the go-around was nothing to "crow" about? :O

ps Its nice to see a question asked and answered nicely - even though I myself have been in umpteen goarounds, they still pike my interest too when I see them occur

I think 757driver should give bearcat the bird!!!:D

Thanks for the help guys.

Just ignore bearcat. He is raven mad !!!!

:cool: :ok: :cool:
