Really? I thought it was pretty clear.

I never mentioned or used dry figures...they are all either contaminated figures from Don's A343 QRH or the figures from the accident investigation (I assume Transport Canada calculated the LDR with respect to the contaminated state of the runway). The only other references were to 'poor' braking actions (wet ice remember) from my QRH.

So you're saying that if you have dispatched to your destination nothing would give you pause to consider whether your subsequent landing might or might not be legal...not even a TS/blizzard contaminating the runway...and if so you would be comfortable using raw data unfactored?

That's kinda scary.

Airbus and Boeing are certified to the same regulatory standards are they not?

However why don't you go back and read what I actually wrote rather than what you think I wrote.
