I was stood about 20yards to the left of Kev for these landings. First EK attempt looked absolutely fine and dandy until about 20ft above the runway. Second never got close, calling it off more or less as it crossed the (in construction) new link road. Third attempt was a charm though, never in doubt.Emirates A380 - 2 go arounds before landing

Watching the A380 do a go around with all that power at low weight was quite impressive. Wife got a great view of its first go around over Birmingham city centre at 4000ft, too!
Hella windy though - i suspect gusts above 50kts!
