NZFF

Noticed that for two days in a row, having made a perfect touchdown at Tauranga, a following GNZLAP Beech Baron has "gone missed" and gone around.

This intrigues me.........

Is this a "programmed happening ?"

The runways etc were well clear and there was no other traffic that may have caused this event. I was the preceding flight but had had time to exit the runway, park, and watch
the Beech approach from about 3 NM's out.

Is this the result of diabolically clever programming, or an ATC directive from within the FS9 set-up ?

Yeah...right!
Bazza, ZK-OSL would be coming in from either Gisborne or Whakatane.
At the end of either of those trips it will do a few circuits, then land at NZTG.
It's just part of the programmed flightplan, repeating, in this case, every 24 hours.

I can understand it being programmed to leave A, and arrive at B, but to fly a couple of laps on arrival is diabolically clever.
