as 1sothernman just said I think that would be a very good conclusion for this thread .
That's not the reality of aviation in 2023. Flight Data Monitoring would have recorded PRECISELY where the aircraft touched down and flagged it to the company whereby even without the pilots filing a safety report. TAP would have been aware of this even before the video was uploaded. Them not filing a report and just having a chat in the pub will make matters worse for them.
Again, there is no 'data' one needs to see, the aircraft landed outside of the TDZ, the die is cast with regards to culpability, unless for some incredibly unusual set of circumstances which would be basically limited to the aircraft being on fire or having <600kgs of fuel remaining. This video (to this competent observer) can be little more than a video of a flight crew failing to safely execute their duties at a very risky and complex airport.
