Aborted Landing in Hamburg
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z42fchrzhHY
After several attempts, pilot attempts landing in gale-force wind with strong side component (viz side-slip angle). On touchdown, as aircraft is aligned with runway, gale tips plane to port. Port wind strikes runway, pilots decide to go around. He then waited in a holding pattern for another 50 minutes before landing safely. All this happened during a heavy storm that hit Germany on Saturday, March 1st. I hear the airport shops selling undergarments posted an unexpected sale of 137 pairs of underpants that day. |
