"Speed Demon" wrote in message .. . Can anyone tell me what's happening in this clip? Why was the landing aborted? ===Looks to me like he's trying to land with strong gusty cross winds (side on) and he's aborted and overshooting so he's crabbing into the wind as much as possible for maximum air speed to climb out. You can see the exhaust smoke being carried from left to right rather quickly indicating cross winds. They also have equipment on board to detect windshear and/or sudden loss of headwind. I imagine it was a spinkster puckering moment.
