Hi, could somebody explain to my poor tired brain why a touch down at, for example, 120 kts after a 3 degree glideslope would require more landing distance than a touchdown at 120 kts after a 5.5 degree glideslope.
I would have thought it was all about brake energy after touchdown.
Or am I just missing the point?

Thanks
Kent
