I was airborne from WSSS 20C yesterday,same runway they landed on, and noticed the big brown stain on the grass to the right of the threshold of 02C,where they used the foam- it only just stopped on the runway. Assuming maximum braking effort on what ever hydraulics they had, single reverse max, and landing weight?-full 4000m runway length to stop, yikes!
