Did the maths behind it based on the Puchacz and assumed 10:1 approach ( probably steeper in real life )

At 250 ft AGL, of the wind dropped from 20 knits to almost zero ( which it was doing on this runway cause it was shielded form the wind ), you would drop 67 meters shot of your aiming point,

Of the sheer happens huger up, you could actually land long

( Again- wrong assumption ur not going to manipulate the AB in real life )
