Rippa - thanks for the answer. On reflection, I guess that whether or not the landing weight limit or any tankering policy into CGH had been changed to reflect recent r/way issues is probably irrelevant given the apparent extreme runway excursion speed. The inclusions and omissions of the reported Airbus note would suggest (their view) that a non-mechanical event or series of events occurred sufficient to catastrophically degrade the stopping performance. If so, the gaping wide"cheese holes" of conditions of CGH were already lined up.
