Default JetBlue Go Around SFO

So we are waiting at SFO for take-off and JB goes around on 28R. Immediately tower asked why, JB responds, we'll get back to you. 30 seconds later tower asked again, JB is getting ****ed, and responds, I told you we would get back to you. We switch over to departure, and they are bugging JB about the go around, so JB tells them we were just high on the approach.

To all you tower controllers, go arounds can get busy, and, we don't get to practice them often. BE PATIENT

Hell, I almost told tower to stop bugging them.

Decades ago when leaving JFK on 31R, the three of us in our 727 were watching Aeroflot shooting a Canarsie approach to 31L, around the very busy time of 1830 of so. At 300-400 feet (so it appeared) they made a missed approach. A real gravely voice from the Aeroflot comes on and says "Aeroflot XXX missed approach".

JFK tower rogers that and gives them a heading and altitude. About 10 seconds or so later the tower asks Aeroflot why the missed approach. No reply.

The tower asks again, and the Aeroflot, after a few seconds comes back with "$hitty approach."

Just like when a girl starts bugging you....... you have to tell them:

"It's not you.... it's me..."

"Change of plans. Clipper turn right heading xxx." Roger Clipper 123.
"XX turn left heading XXX!!!!" Uh, uh.

"Clipper 123 cancel takeoff clearance!"
