If you think the low pass by the Legacy in the video is somehow a =
dangerous=20
maneuver, I hope you never fly into the airport where I learned to fly =
many=20
years ago (Long Beach, CA.)  or any like it - i.e. very busy, four =
runways=20
in a tic-tac-toe arrangement plus a corner-to-corner long runway for the =

(many) airliners. Because if you can't accept a go-around from the tower =

with instructions to fly runway heading until past the departure end of =
the=20
runway (which results in a mandatory pass very much like the the one in =
the=20
video) then your training for such a situation is woefully incomplete.

Add to the fact that in such a case (the go-around), you're pretty busy=20
getting the power up and the airplane cleaned up, ensuring that you have =
a=20
positive, or at least not negative, rate of climb - all the while =
staying on

center line and keeping your eyes peeled as to what caused the ruckus, =
while

in the low pass, you must just fly the airplane. Very close to the same=20
maneuver but without all the pilot work-load.

If the low pass is either dangerous, illegal or both, then there many, =
many=20
controllers and pilots out there who've been screwing up forever!

Flame shorts on,
