@capt_zman:
reading this from your last trip, afterall do you think it was a good idea to go for a landing under KNOWN WS conditions? Was NRT closed at any time by the way?

I dont think so, even though you made it. This is not an offence towards you, but I think there are times to cancel or divert a flight and not "trying" to land in an active typhoon condition.
Beside that, I totally agree to the other contents of your post!
Just my opinion.
