But that’s not the point of this thread. I hope we get some breakdown of what happened here through the training department. What thought process happened in that cockpit so I can learn from it, and hopefully not make the same decisions before just calling a go around and trying again. Good job saving the day, but ooohhh boy was that hard to watch.
