thoughts??
LoL nice troll post. "I had an incident" then "vref -10 at 50ft" then the real kicker "resulting in a near tail strike". First of all, how did you know it was "resulting in a near tail strike"? I mean this post is laughable on so many levels and the fact it will most likely run 100+ posts is pretty much guaranteed. must be a slow day.
Two words need to be used, if you are uncomfortable or deem continuing to land is a safety issue with no need to "take the airplane from the Captain" - GO AROUND.
