Default Re: A case of the ferris wheel and the plane...

That is well within the splay and if he was in trouble and trying to control the aircraft in a go around while it was not playing nicely then hitting that wheel may not be totally culpable.

An aircraft is not a car with wings. You cannot just hit the brakes and pull over on a cloud to take a breather and change your undies if things are not going well. There are 3 dimensions and external forces such as wind and turbulence.

Again, lets see what the crash comics say before forming the lynch mob
