From the photos it looks as though they have stopped in the RESA which shouldn’t be a problem.

The RESA is designed for situations exactly like this. If the aerodrome is Part 139 Certified, which I’m sure it is I expect that there has been no damage to the aircraft and all that would be required is for the aircraft to be towed back to the apron and maybe have a LAME do an inspection on the aircraft to release it back into service.

Given the weather conditions, the crew done a good job in the challenging conditions. Lessons to be learnt, certainly yes however it’s very unfair to only make judgment on the flight crew as their decision making would certainly have been influenced by commercial pressures.

Good outcome given the WX conditions in my opinion.

Someone mentioned talk to your union if the pilots are members, I second that!
