Not so much a go around as a touch and go, main gear on the runway for quite a distance but nose always high and eventually flown off again.
Not a pilot but believe the MD11 is a difficult aircraft to land.

Hi Guys
Do you know if the MD11 will be at Manchester again this Friday? Missed the last couple so hope to see it this time.
Thanks again, Jamlidd

The answer to that is probably. You can't 100% bank on it arriving as it's a freighter, so if there isn't a reason for it to call in then it might go over the top direct to FRA.
There isn't any point paying fuel and landing/handling on a day when there isn't any freight being handled here. So there is that bit of uncertainty but it is a regular arrival.
