The First Officer, who was flying, pitched the aircraft up excessively during the go-around, leading to a stall and loss of control.Probably a 250 hour pilot in the right seat.http://www.airdisaster.com/photos/c-fski/1.jpg
November 19, 200223 yr I though when you said "bus" you ment Airbus :-eek , I think I got to get my head out of the clouds. lol
November 19, 200223 yr I was onboard a 737-300 (the last passenger off the plane) in Jackson Hole several years ago, when a baggage loader collided with the plane. Lifted the right mains off the ground, and felt almost like I was in a rear-ender. I never found any FAA report about the incident, but it was serious enough that they had to ferry the aircraft back to Denver, with the pilots on oxygen. I think these mishaps are fairly frequent.BTW, if this thread "disappears", don't worry that it was deleted. It's a bit O/T, so it's possible it will get moved to Hangar Chat.-John
