DJ506 Go Around - Sat 16th Feb
 
I was on DJ506 on Sat morning (16 Feb) and we performed a "go around" shortly after I had taken a photo of the new Ikea. The weather was perfect so I presumed that the go around was traffic-related, but when I checked Webtrak recording there was nothing showing on the ground.

Did anyone hear anything on ATC? Nigel - you weren't driving around on 16R were you? :D

Cheers
Mark

Hi Mark,

Apparently an "unstable approach" was the cause. The aircraft was given landing clearance as soon as it called tower and the pilots chose to go around.

Have a listen here: http://www.liveatc.net/archive.php

Select date: 17th
Airport: YSSY of course :p
and Time: 2300!

May have something to do with an electric device such as a camera or other!

Thanks for that Andrew - it felt stable at the time and a perfectly clear day.

Brian - my phone was off I promise :-)
