WTH is going on?
Every other day with some close call or worse.
Every other day with some close call or worse.
That's been going on for forever. I've had 3 instances in the last 20 years where the plane I'm on steps on the gas and pulls up on final approach. Twice at DTW on Delta flights.
DEI. Or Trump. Or End of Days. Or . . .
Business jet pilot mixed up the correct instructions he got from ATC.
Never had it happened to me, but I was surprised a large jet like that could power up for a climb like that. I mean, he was feet - maybe inches - from touching down.
I imagine that is practiced many times on a simulator, but that's a big plane to power up that fast. Thank God.
I don't remember which airport it is in LA, maybe John Wayne, where they climb like that in takeoff as part of a noise abatement ordinance. Freaked me out the first time that happened.
