Thruster88 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I did not know Ross but I think we shared a similar passion for aviation, age and experience level. There has been a lot of talk about turning back and it certainly featured in the coroner's report. The aircraft had only travelled about 200 metres down the runway and gained about 100' when the engine power reduced. With 600 metres of runway remaining no pilot would be thinking turn back, it is a ludicrous notion. Why was he distracted from the task of closing the throttle and landing, we will never know. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
