Why would two generators leave you with no LNAV? Wouldn't you need to lose two AC busses to get anywhere close to that?

The aircraft was over my head thursday morning when it entered the dutch coast. Driving to the coast I spotted the aircraft already making very steep high speed turns. The aircraft flew all the time in British airspace but did not land there

Balked landing, correct intervention.

Flare little late with almost full elevator (hence a few knots low on speed probably). The nose has a tendency to drop after the bounce, which is accelerated with the nose down input. That is a common error to force the landing. Correct correction with nose up elevator to immediatly support the nose wheel and go-around. It still became a "flat" second touch (nose and main gear on the runway at the same time), but it didn't make it worse either.

Plenty of examples out there to show how this can create dangerous PIO with possible nose gear damage if you really want to "force" the landing.

Nice example of a B777 forcing the landing.

Accident: UPS B744 at Tokyo on May 6th 2023, hard touchdown on windshear recovery

andrej

It is bewilders me how windshear forces more than 200 tons to the ground quite easily. Scary thing indeed. Good that it turned out to be OK for all.

Quote from: Swiso on Wed, 24 Apr 2024 08:35Any reason for the go-around ? Remaining distance of runway too short ?

The following text mentions that it was supposed to have been a training flight. That is what Lufthansa said. Unfortunately the article is only in German, sorry...
