Had my first Oh shit moment on a plane. On Thursday, after sitting on the runway at Newark for 2 hours, we finally made it to Atlanta. As we were just about to land, gear down, nose up, really close to the ground, we shot up and aborted the landing. The pilot told us that the runway directions had been switched and we now had to go around. By the time we were exiting, after the pilot spoke to the attendants, the story was we were coming in too fast to land.
I wonder if we were about to land as another plane was coming from the other direction.
