Blimey!

For those of you familiar with Brum, on an RJ-85 the other day we landed on 33 and exited at the intersection (of the old 06-24)! No strong headwind just bursts of heavy braking. Very impressive, although I failed to understand the need since we were 15 mins ahead of schedule and there was no traffic behind us. I had witnessed it once before (also with an RJ-85 - different airline) but there was a 20-25 knot head wind that day.
