  • Prior to thunderstorm activity in the vicinity of southern MN, an impressive gust front battered MSP. Peak wind gusts reached about 50 knots. Windshear prompted many go arounds. The winds shifted from about a 120 heading to 240 before swinging back around to favor 12L/R.

    Your videos make my day. To see this in person I have to drive all the way from RST, and many times I am disappointed after coming to the viewing area only to find that all aircrafts are landing/ taking off from the farther runways (the one behind us).

    As a retired Air Traffic Controller it was not surprising to see this controller have to send acft around. It’s never going to work putting someone into position to hold with another acft 3 mile final. She is an accident waiting to happen.

      @BigJerm47 Рік тому +1

      My first thought when I heard "sun country go around" was wow! She really screwed that up clearing delta for 12R!

    • @ShaneVanHoven
      @ShaneVanHoven Рік тому +3

      Disagree entirely. When she lined up the 757, SCX was on a 4.5 mile final, this is plenty of room to get a departure out. Maybe the RJ was slow off the runway, maybe SCX didn’t slow in final as expected. A lot of things need to go right in order to land and depart on the same runway consistently, and that all goes out the window with weather.
      Use caution throwing your retired controller badge around unless you have experience working at this particular facility. Every tower is different.

    Newbie here. That Sun Country go around at 2:30 looks pretty close. Is that common? Love this channel, by the way.

    • @twincitiesaviator
      @twincitiesaviator  Рік тому +1

      Yeeeeah common enough. All it takes is tight spacing to begin with and the departing aircraft taking its time.
