COMMENTS: - - I am always impressed by the capacity, intelligence, coolness and talent of these incredible Pilots !! They are sometimes in catastrophic situations, and simply manage to fix the route, saving lives, and keeping passengers safe !! They are even worthy of being called heroes !!

I would like to hug the American Airlines pilot who flew us from Dallas to Narita Japan on February 19-20, 2017. This pilot was extra cautious about getting the plane down in super high winds, and in the process aborted 4 landing attempts in a row at Narita, diverted to Haneda where he aborted 1 more attempt before finally getting the plane down safely on the 6th try!
Holy smokes was that a scary flight!!

When we were flying into Heathrow the pilot aborted the landing, it's scary if you don't know what's going on. When we finally landed and exited the plane I thanked the pilot profusely and he said those 'United Guys' were in the way.

I was once on a plane that landed like this in Miami FL. , after the many bounces across the runway and some severe skidding, the loadspeaker said " A big Congrats to Juan, a new pilot, this was his first landing" !
