Question for commercial pilots?

Question:
We were on what I think you call the glide path to landing in Kansas City - the hub of a now defunct airline. I believe the plane was a DC3 or 737. As we were about to land, the pilot powered back up and we circled and finally landed. No word from the pilot or flight attendants about why. Any ideas?

Answers:

Does anyone know the material of a Douglas DC-3 Aircraft landing gear?

i want to know working of aircrafts wing flaps & other direction device.?


This can be due to pilot error, traffic on the ground, an instruction from ATC, or other reasons. Any time it doesn't feel right, or look right it's a good idea to abort and try again. It is a good idea to let the passengers know everything is OK, but that isn't a priority, flying the plane is the priority.

What is the best civilian helicopter in the world today?


I fly much smaller planes than either of the two you mentioned. One time just as I was about to touch down a deer ran out on the runway. I didn't have time to think about what I wanted to do, there wasn't any time to hesitate. I had just been programmed to power up and abort without even thinking about it. It becomes automatic.
