In a simulator without approved visuals capable of representing circle to land to FAIL a pilot for the performance described is weak in my opinion. Especially
If the rest of the ride was good.
But the fail was not for the visual manoeuvre, the fail was pressing on to a long landing when a go-around should have been the correct course of action.
Over the years, many aircraft have crashed through pilots pressing on regardless. There have also been many runway excursions caused by long landings.
Yes, this runway was 3500m but what if the decision was taken on a shorter runway, what if there was a tailwind, wet runway, downslope, late reversers selection etc.
Our company is extremely worried about long landings because people try and hold off for a nice smooth touchdown. One day someone is going to do it with the wrong conditions and they'll end up in the dirt.
Sorry for the person concerned, but unless there's an emergency or a very serious reason not to go around (lack of fuel) there's no excuse for landing 1000m into a runway.
