Nice job Diane Sawyer. Ramp up the hyperbole and fear factor. She should be ashamed, but she has no shame. Just lots of $money$.
This doesn't happen every day, but it was bound to happened some day. Well, that day has come. unfortunately, there are somethings that you can not foresee or even prevent. Thank God the ATC saw it and was able to instruct the approaching a/c to abort the landing and go around.
I love the newscaster’s quote "seconds from landing" yet the plane is never in view, the pilot never acknowledges seeing the target, or gets too concerned about the go around. Journalism 101, its not a news story unless someone dies or a group of people come close to death even if it requires a stretch of the truth.
Well, as soon as you take off, you are "just seconds" from landing. 3600 of them per hour :)
I really hope they don't crack down on traffic back there now in a knee jerk flawed logic reaction... There is some pretty decent spotting to be had back there, especially at the threshold of 9R when there is a low pressure zone coming in from the west - they use that runway to land... It's the closest to the road back there, and you are only like 1000ft from the threshold.. What a view, and the vortices cause mini tornadoes in the river right behind you... Really neat to see.
Laws can’t stop the insane or temporarily insane. You must be prepared to react to the unexpected at all times.
