Nice go around but that definitely wasn't due to an aircraft on the runway. The go around would have been made much earlier for that reason. The height over the runway is a more realistic explanation as you were still a decent way up after passing the windsock which is pretty much abeam the main touchdown markers
It also looks like it may of been windshear as the flaps were not retracted until much later after the go around suggesting the pilots were flying a windshear escape
I’ll be honest the flight was so long ago I had forgotten the cause of the go around and from you video you can see that I didn’t manage to get the full reason from the captain on video. I did previously have a go around due to an aircraft on the runway and thought it was this one. Thank you for your comment and insight, it is greatly appreciated!
@@aviation_irl I've landed on Runway 09 at LPL a decent amount of times as a pilot & passenger and that just didn't look right on the first one height wise!
@@AviationUpclose landed here today on the same runway, landed on it a good few times, we landed slightly late and we’re heavy on the breaks, plane was 100% to high on that first approach
