  1. I witnessed this very plane trying to land whilst I was fishing in the area. The pilot had gone around but seemed to have been approaching quite fast both times. After the second pass, I assumed it had landed without issue, but later noticed the very plane off the runway and on the grass with an emergency vehicle present. Quite glad to see that nobody was fatally injured. If I recall, the conditions were not pleasant.
