The section between 24 and 29 minutes needs to be played in airports when storms force cancellations.... Many folks dont understand, but if they were told/shown that it was done for their own safety then attitudes may change.... Public need to understand that Pilots are just average people with a different skill set.. This doesnt mean they're superhuman and incapable of getting it anythijg but perfect. Even in the most challenging and dangerous of situations....
Well done and thank you too the pilots, cabin crew and airport staff on the ground for putting our safety before our ignorance of the dangers these weather changes pose to life

Yes, I remember St Jude’s storm. I was in Ipswich that day and I remember it tore the facings off high rise flats and we lost power for a while. That year, Atlantic lows seemed to be queuing up to batter us. Like the one before Christmas Eve. I kept going out for a smoke and nearly getting blown away. Exciting times but not for the poor buggers who lost everything.

You don't just dredge rivers, you build sea walls and also now walls along river banks, or make the river banks much higher... there are things out there that can stop flooding.. However if you're going to live right on the coast and risk loosing you home that's built on nothing more than a sand bank i have no sympathy for you.. You cannot have it both ways, ie living in a nice place with nice views without expecting flooding given the fact that as the years pass by you DO BUGGER ALL TO PREVENT WHAT'S COMING.. Or are you thick as well as dumb.

The drainage systems need to be four fold, giving jobs to people. and lowering the risk of flooding, and problem areas that flood constantly need to be looked at to see what's possible to do in such area.
Also for those that live in such areas that flood on a constant basis, they need to pay much much higher INSURANCE premiums than those that don't live in such areas.. why should everyone else have to pay more in their insurance for your stupidity.

Times have changed over the decades and yet nothing is done in preventing floods.. The Government take million even Billions off people in tax's for climate change, where is that money gone..?
Because i see bugger all spent there or here where i live.. They take the money and put it in there back pockets and run...
