Actually, it's scheduled to be released Aug 30th.

The Captain obviously screwed up. When on pilot says "go around", there is NO option but to go around....regardless of who initiates it. I have gone around when I didn't feel it was necessary(stabilized approach, no obvious problems on the runway), but the other pilot called it...and once it turned out to be not necessary, but the other time the SIC saw a truck entering the runway that I did not.

Thanks

Thanks guys for the info. The captain suffered from a severe case of "captainitis". It'll bit you in the rump everytime.

Scheduling should take a long, hard look at this incident. They were on Day 8 with a light schedule on the days leading to this accident. Imagine the risks we are taking working (8) 14 hour days.

Fly safe! Just say "NO."
