Max Verstappen’s Falcon 8X departing SXM on May-9
As if being at Maho Beach wasn’t enough, this was the first aircraft arrival/departure we got to see. Unreal.
At first i thought it might be a LAHSO symbol but it’s pretty far from the intersecting rwy. Also, the LAHSO symbol has “LAHSO” written next to it as far as i know. The displaced threshold symbol is squiggly. I didnt see this symbol in the ADF legend. It looks like a COP symbol but it’s at both ends of the rwy. Thanks in advance
Howdy. The scenario: TWR has cleared someone (a heavy) for takeoff. They are trying to squeeze this aircraft in before you land. You are the landing jet coming in at 150kts on a two mile final. It is daylight out and you see the heavy in front of you has not begun their takeoff roll so you decide to go around. When you key up are you saying, “XYZ123 going around,” and then wait for your HDG and ALT assignment or do you initiate a turn any which way is clear of traffic?
You obviously wouldnt follow the MAP because you dont want to overtake the plane that was just given clearance to depart. But this scenario is also in congested airspace.
Hope this makes sense. Thanks
