What I don't get is if they already knew it was dangerous conditions for aircraft, why didn't they close the runway? - Because it's all about money money money?
RIP to all onboard.

Also, it wasn't the 'scarebus,' the thread title is miss leading. It was the condition which may be slightly down to the Airbus not beeing properly tested in these sort of conditions. Anyway, all planes need to havea crash at least once, it just so happens a new one has had one. Hardly a big deal "/
The Runway had recently been resurfaced and the proper ridges had not been made and there was not enough traction and it was slight wet so the rain could drain away.
Airbusses nickname is Scarebus :|Quote:

Meh, maybe they should re-surface the touchdown area of Runway 23 at Stansted.. Thats pretty much like an ice ring!
