Extremely lucky. I am curious if what they said is true, if they touched down briefly, why go back around. Obviously that was a huge mistake looking back on it, it would have been better to crash on the runway than in a city, but I wonder what the pilot saw or how bad it was for them to abort that landing to try again.

Also, Saeed, I have no idea how you can read that site's news. The website is so poorly put together. The ads are overwhelming and my ad blocker sucks and doesn't block anything.

I have an English friend who sends me links to what he thinks might interest me.

I don’t read any news site!

Well now we know why they didn't land the first time. And to top it all off, almost a third of all of Pakistan pilots were grounded because they fraudulently got their pilot licenses. Unbelievable! I would say it's a good idea to not book a flight on any Pakistani based airline.

Pilot Error

Grounded Pilots

I have never been to Nigeria, but have been to Pakistan.

I bet Pakistan can give Nigeria a run for is money for corruption.!
