      @@donkeyholmes4581 It is a live stream - the viewer will not know of the outcome of the approach, whether it will be a safe landing or if it is a go around or if there will be a tail strike. It is like live sport - the suspense of what the next wind gust can do to an aircraft is something that viewers see for themselves live.

Before I left, almost every flight was bumpy or turbulent at some point.

      I remember lightning striking the plane with a big flash coming out of Vancouver on its way to London. Coming little more than a year after Lockerbie,there was that uh-oh split second before thinking: well I'm not quite sure what that was,but I'm sure it's OK. The old Kai Tak airport in Hong Kong was always an interesting take-off and landing,because of the scene not the weather conditions - though I doubt anyone was taking to the skies if a Typhoon warning was up.

Showing respect to the humble pilot who people take for granted. I'm a Joiner and I have a job soon to fit 18 doors for a ex commercial pilot who before that was ex RAF and flew the avro vulcan. And is even apart of the caterpillar club. Even being in his presence was in someways a honour as far as I'm concerned he's a national hero to me. He wouldn't thunk that ofcourse but I certainly do. To me he's up there beyond the levels of Premier league footballers even national. He did a real job.
