Go Around...

[midlifeflyer]

I'm on my way home from SnF on a Southwest flight into RDU following the flight on FltPlan Go! About a minute from touchdown on the ILS, we go around...

Turns out there was a slower aircraft in front of us. We were in the clouds and the maneuver was so smooth, I don't think most of the passengers noticed until, once restabilized on the "downwind," the cockpit came on to tell us.

 

[eman1200]

They did an ABORT just before AMORT.

 

[SkyDog58]

That made me snort.

 

[FlySince9]

That made me snort.

Tell it in court...

 

[455 Bravo Uniform]

Tell it in court...

As your last resort...

 

[Skyrys62]

Looks like you cut it short.

 

[sourdough44]

That stress calls for another glass of port.

[TRocket]

Was waiting for that one

 

[bflynn]

Almost to the airport.

 

[eman1200]

better than landing short

 

[bflynn]

At what time did your landing fall short?

 

[SkyDog58]

Were you flying an import?

 

[PaulS]

Wish I could think of a great retort.

 

[Stingray Don]

Might have to file a report

 

[Eric Stoltz]

Nah, take a nap on the Davenport

 

[kath]

Or just fly Light Sport.

 

[midlifeflyer]

Sorry, but after "Abort at AMORT" the comments all fell sort of short.

 

[SkyDog58]

Oh, go file a tort.

 

[eman1200]

So, to be part of this circle-jerk, must one comport? I respectfully stand-down.

don't be a clown!

 

[ChemGuy]

No more rhymes now, I mean it!

 

[eman1200]

No more rhymes now, I mean it!

Are you beneath it?

 

[cgrab]

I'm just saying it wasn't me that caused the short abort at AMORT

 

[david.h]

Anybody want a peanut?

 

[NealRomeoGolf]

Inconceivable!!

 

[Timbeck2]

As you wish.

 

[SkyDog58]

Anybody want a peanut?

Just one? What are you, a United Flight Attendant?

 

[Palmpilot]

Anybody want a peanut?

 

[NealRomeoGolf]

As you wish.

Aww shucks Tim. I didn't know you cared so much. I barely know you.

 

[texasclouds]

 

[Skyrys62]

That made me snort.

Like the laugh kind or the white powder kind?

 

[SkyDog58]

Like the laugh kind or the white powder kind?

As it was in response to @eman1200, it could be either or both.
