Easyjet Go Around at Schipol Airport (video - one wheel touches runway)
An easyJet A319 airbus aborts its landing at Amsterdam's Schipol airport after wind tipped the plane dangerously. The right wheel touched the runway for less than a second and then the plane pulled up for a second attempt, which the pilot managed safely and successfully (www.theguardian.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
The press don't half sensationalise. The aircraft was under control.
True. The second attempt was described as "wobbly", it looked to me as a very smooth landing...
Wasn't this about the same thing that happened at Maderia the other day and the pilot went ahead and landed. I wasn't there but as I was that close, with one down, I think I'd have dumped everything and put it down. Might have been a tad on the rough side but it would have been down, and although he/she made it, I personally don't think a go round was in order. JMHO
Ever flown into KRNO? The winds coming over the top of the Sierras are crazy!
Been awhile but I been there. Every now and then you get lucky and miss 'em but not often. LOL
