Geardown
From the video in youtube, there are 12 piano keys painted at the threshold which means the runway is 45m wide. Turning a 737 with that width is just a walk in the park. They didnt access any extra width by going beyond the end of the runway, did they?
The fact is they taxied right past the end of the runway. Let that be a lesson to all of us especially in the absence of any additional runway markings identitfying an extension to the pavement surface.
In my experience, its usually very obvious where additional runway pavement is available beyond what has been used for take-off calculation. When its not immediately obvious, just don't do it, no need too. Anyhow, those FR pilots do fly into very difficult places and so the risk profile for their operations is higher.
Everyone involved still has a heart beat and a pulse so that's the main thing.
