Go-Around after airplane takes off without Clearance

Aborted landing in a F33A when airplane enters runway without clearance. This was at Whiteman Airport in SoCal. Good Go-Around practice.

Flaps up when you go around --especially on this aircraft..

@spikey851 Not right away...sinkage....look at 1:05 and you will see the flaps are up before the steep turn back into the downwind.

Good maneuvre, but in my opinion, you had enough time to proceed on your approach and land...

@businessmam

Possibly could have continued the approach but remember the old saying "There are old pilots and bold pilots, but there are no old, bold pilots."

I finished my PPL training a WHP many years ago (1993) and during busy weekends the tower would give a clearance like "N12345 clear for takeoff 12, expedite, traffic 2 mile final". In this situation the bonanza probably checked in on a 3 mile final and got a landing clearance also, so in effect both aircraft got a clearance at about the same time. I doubt the tower at WHP would just look the other way. If there was doubt they'd ask the pilot to call the tower by phone after a full stop landing.

They may have given the guy the "number"...I guess we'll never know. Ahahah. Thanks for the comment.

@spikey851 looked like takeoff flaps to me.. perfectly normal. and add power and get a climb rate before cleaning up to T/O flaps.

@businessmam: He had the space to land behind the plane taking off, but if the other plane had to abort it's takeoff for any reason, he may have been in trouble. However, the runway appeared to be able to accommodate 2 single engine aircraft no problem, so, I suppose in the end you're right. It's like driving though, you never know what the other guy is gonna do when you're/they're a fresh single engine pilot.

@spikey851 Ive finished my ICAO CPL in New Zealand 2 months ago. I'm curious how you are an A320 pilot? What airline is that for? Im guessing you are a first officer if you were one

[spikey851]

@appleglory yep,,did it in florida,,FAA dont take more than 8 months,,i admit its not the best license compared to JAA And AUS...where are you doing it?

[appleglory]

@spikey851 wow really? your first solo was in 2009, howd you move up so quick? :) let me in on some hints Ive just finished my CPL, ME IR

[spikey851]

@appleglory i was talking on the phase itself not the sequence mate ;)

am an A320 pilot myself,,makes me forget those planes,,you go from confg. full to conf.3 then to conf1 straight away....but the sequence stays the same tho

@spikey851 Full power first, positive rate, clear of terrain, THEN flap up. Getting rid of that last stage, you lose a lot of lift
