There have been ( at least it seems) quite a few 737-8 overruns, is the increased approach speed one possible cause?
We have to be careful these days...the 737-800 is a 738...a 737-8 as you ref, is a 737-8MAX

Yes, of late there have been quite a few 738 over-runs...the common SOP of brakes over rev thrust, along with flaps 30, has likely contributed

I have not heard of any 8MAX over-runs...other than impeding on employee parking space.

I guess now at least Ryanair is calling it a 737-8200...still the ICAO designation stands. (the 737-MAX 10 if it ever flies, will be a nomenclature quandary...
