Mr Boeing,

"Seems the training may well be lacking."

I heard a similar Jetstar story relayed to me by an ex AN FO.

It seems they were just touching down in BKK when the captain realised there may be insufficient runway remaining to stop the big jet, being heavy rain and all. So he jumped on the binders, pulled max reverse, checked spoiler deployment and they made the last exit comfortably.

Nice one skipper, remarked the FO as they taxied past the golf course.
