Who was operating PYO? Judging by the TAF the weather was typical low cloud, rain and stormy. Glad I wasn't bumbling about in that trying to sort out gear warnings etc. Judging by the wings, there was a substantial amount of reverse being applied, understandably! Perhaps the result of aquaplaning late in the landing roll which in some ways could nullify any substantial 'exceedance' of Vref.
Note to operators: I guess this would be no place for a low time captain to be operating?
