Skidding sideways in an A320 at 140kts must have been a tad exciting, and it looks like they were very lucky to pull up before the boundary fence.

They were probably on the same A320 training course as the Air Canada A320 pilots from Halifax. Both took out the Localizer / ILS.

If you were photographing just outside the fence, you would be running for your life (while still shooting or taking a great selfie).

Nigel, you can't still be hungry for a DoG Steak, you only had one last Saturday.
