This was a minor incident in that no-one was hurt and there was little damage to the aircraft. However as I stated in the Savannah Incident thread there have been a significant number of runway overrun incidents ranging from similarly minor ones to the disasterous event in India.

So whilst many of the individual incidents are relatively insignificant, the fact that there have been so many in such a short space of time IS a cause for concern and should be treated seriously by anyone with a remote interest in airline safety.
