In most of the replies to the original tweet I see a lot of fear borne out of not understanding. Although it does make sense that it could be scary to the unaware, it also means that most of the replies don’t super seem to know what they are talking about.

“Not right” could range from an unexpected drop in headwind to dangerous traffic on the tarmac.

The thing that matters is a GA is allowing for the opportunity for the circumstances to change.

There is usually not a lot of time to call it, so it means the flight crew is on the ball.

Without a doubt something has gone weird in aviation over the past few months.

But go arounds should be considered one of the most comforting “unusual” events in aviation. They mean something wasn’t right and the pilots took action.

The brand styling of this page is off the charts, even for teenage, wow.

Your zone barely becomes visible as you descend and slow as much as you dare.

Not too early. Not too late. You release over flames you cannot see. Skill and experience tells you when.

The plane lightens and rises with a mind of its own.

Time for another run.

Don’t push too hard. The engines can not take it. You hear the airframe groan as you begin to lift your ocean from the sea.

Lumbering, heavy, and slower, you gain height and wrestle the plane towards your strike.

Your eyes are on everything as you swing around just above the treetops.
