With drones, who has the ‘skin in the game’?

“Go Around.” These words, and the reactions to them, are some of the most important to a pilot, whether initiated themselves or by air traffic controllers. They are probably the words that have prevented more accidents than any other, and would have avoided many that did happen, if they’d only been used.

And why that inward reaction? Well ‘going around’ certainly means your workload is about to go up, along with the plane. It also means you’re probably avoiding something dangerous in the immediate future of the aeroplane. And after all, we have ‘skin in the game’ – what happens to the aircraft happens to us and our passengers.
