Runway 10 is not grooved. Is this yet another fast tailwind landing on a non-grooved wet runway (with a thrust reverser inop)?
More likely yet another landing well beyond the authorised touch-down distance (trying hard not to use term "touchdown zone" which has ambiguous meaning).

Let's see first what the touchdown point and delta Vref was, and start our learning experience from there. Not to land is most man's last line of defence. Another interesting data point would be the 500' AFE profile and speed/thrust. Unlike some other investigation agencies, NTSB has remained strong in naming what needs to be named.
