Max Angle - I've been on here for a while, and not often posted but felt I had to upon reading your ill-informed and rather pompus comment.

You chose to coment before even getting the facts right - the journos as usual blew the whole thing out of proportion as "Plane overshoots runway" drama actually turned into an error by the pilot who when turning the aircraft round misjudged the turn and ended up with his nosewheels on the grass.

Yes, he had a brake problem, but it had nothing to do with his error in turning!

"A biz jet off the end of 14" was also pilot error.

Don't know about the Saab.
