Re: [MBZ] I am back in Paradise
I dunno but I was on a flight that made a go-around once. Coming into LAX, we're down low, everything seems normal. Wait, theres the runway, I've flown alot and it seems like we're not low enough. It also seems like we're going REALLY fast... Then the power comes on, the nose comes up and the pilot tells us he's "gonna try that again".

No. I guess I would have been better off driving back. If they lost the bags I sure hope they pay for it. I had my Iway, a laptop, a video camera, cloths etc in there.
