It’s got early goal conceded then fighting for a 1-1 with them falling down and time wasting for 75mins…

All approaches are minded to be a go-around with standard missed approach paths by professional crews. Collisions sadly are another thing.

You are wrong. You are not in ‘coffin corner’ for landing, the jet has ample thrust plus plenty of high lift devices, a go-around is a safe manoeuvre and often practiced.

Having spent most of my career waiting to takeoff, holding (not circling) to land to and from crowded miserable terminals at LHR; improvement and expansion can’t come soon enough for me. AMS, FRA & CDG laughing at how pathetic the current product is…

Circling isn’t an aviation term by the way, it’s called ‘holding’ #avgeek

Whilst it will create more flights (that’s the whole idea, i.e. growth) a third runway operated like a mini Gatwick for medium jets freeing them from having to wait for the heavy jets’ wake turbulence will create a far more efficient airport. Less holding in the air & ground #aviation

If a certain UK airline offered free messaging on the Panasonic equipped jets, no one will get messaging.
Personally happy to pay the £2.50 to keep it usable…

Known as ‘the clockwork orange’ but you’ve already been told that.

I found it easy to dump Twitter although miss a few individuals. I don’t use Facebook or Insta for news but useful for seeing what friends are up to thus a little more difficult to ditch.
Pleased the #avgeek
community are here though.

Yes (I’m not anti/sceptic here) trouble is I’m on street parking and really don’t fancy trolling around looking for local .79p public chargers, constantly assessing still.

Good point. See Stansted (UK) Korean Airlines B747F crash.

Always good support from that airline.
Particularly liked it when they unloaded from the front…

Morning. That was a little more complicated. See the every brilliant mentor pilot for this: youtu.be/TOOKYR5ZJbQ?...

Was reverser pulled or just being dragged out by friction?

This is true, they made the runway; I’d like to know why without gear, slats, flaps & spoilers?
