Holy hell! I’m never setting foot on a plane again. Ever! Thanks for sharing, but that was horrible. Poor people in the ones that crashed.

Take off and landing is the riskiest part of flying - but remember, driving to the airport is even riskier, considering car accidents are much more common. So if you can survive the taxi drive, you've endured the most dangerous part! See amazing landing:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXj65a0490Y …

That was crazy! Did that runway just end right there?
-
Yep! Check out STOL - Short Take Off Landing, Planes can actually take off quite quickly, massive runways are just an extra precaution in-case pilots need to abort or come in late -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrXJCj_7aIA …

Thanks for all the links!

If by "harrowing" you mean "perfectly normal crosswind approach and all-around", sure.

Er, GO around. How about an edit button already? Jesus.

This is somewhat normal, except for the missed approach call.

I love landing at Reagan. It's one of the toughest in the world and you definitely feel it. Funny watching the passengers turn blue over the river turns.
-
It’s a very...interesting airport. Runways build in crosswinds during winter, and of course the river approach. And runways shorter than LaGuardia.

I was flying out of Charlotte when the pilot came on and said we had to change planes because the gyroscope wasn't working correctly and he was worried we couldn't land at Reagan: "Don't want to end up in the river". Everybody gasp.
