FreeflyChile 0 #3 March 3, 2008 I was just thinking how freaky it had to have been a passenger sitting on the window side where you can see down the length of the runway as the plane is coming in, going... 'um, i'm sitting in 26A, why can i see down the runway???' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikeJD 0 #13 March 4, 2008 Hard to know which of the 15 reposts on this topic to respond to. I'd like to have seen the successful landing after the go-around - I doubt it can have been much prettier in those conditions. And as others have said, I'd hate to have been on board, especially with a port-facing window. "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking.
