Battling foul weather, One-Two-Go Flight 269 begins its final approach to Phuket International Airport in Thailand. Powerful winds force the plane away from the glide path, while the co-pilot fights to align the aircraft with the runway. But the plane is descending too fast to correct its position. Rather than risk crashing, the pilots decide to perform a go-around and set up another approach.

Will the pilots manage to execute a safe go-around or is it already too late to avoid disaster? This is the story of One-Two-Go Flight 269.
