An A380 that has been in the air for over six hours should not be "overweight" for landing.

I was actually told earlier today by someone who saw the landing that it was chased down the runway by firetrucks in case of hot brakes.

Guess it might not mean that it was "overweight", but apparently they were worried about the possibility of something happening.
