Ahhhhhh Correct technique? What part was correct? maybe the ZERO rudder use? Or perhaps the dragging of the wingtip? Maybe the go around procedure
after grinding the wing tip off?

Geez pal, You won't be "demonstrating" that technique in my cockpit.

Thanks Siskel, for your blow-by-blow of the film

Lets make sure we don't ever have to share the cockpit together
