About 20 mins ago the Fed Ex MD11F was given a go-around. Great angle of climb and turn on the pull-out!! The prob was a smaller departing aircraft that didn't get off the ground quickly enough. Anyone see which aircraft this was? It appeared (from my office in the city) to have a blue tail! It took about 15 mins for the MD11F to rejoin the queue and land after a couple of Qantas 767s.

The aircraft on the runway at the time was a Thai 777-200. I saw the go around (awesome noise and angle) and when it was climbing above the airport and turning left, it was avoiding the Thai aircraft
