Lol it’s fine. If I was someone from the press it would have been a ‘Boeing A380’ landing and a ‘Canadair 747’ taking off, and there’d probably be reports of someone seeing ‘flames’ somewhere too. lol.

Well I did wonder why the Dash-8 pilot didn’t initiate the go-around himself. But I suppose you have to consider his position. Would he have known what kind of go-around procedure to follow in that situation? Would he have known which way it was safe to turn? Because i’m pretty sure the normal procedure is to climb straight ahead. Maybe he thought it would be safer to continue, rather than risk flying into the path of the CRJ?

A trawl from the press? What?

I don’t know what that means or if you’re joking, but I’m just a regular aviation enthusiast. If this kind of situation is abnormal maybe somebody should tell the press though yeah. It was very scary to watch, definitely the lowest go-around I’ve ever watched and it sounded like the tower controller lost it judging from the way he was speaking.
