I dunno the bmi Airbus drivers I have spoken to seem ok with it. If the runway were too short, the flights would be operating illegally.
Shall we stop the likes of JMC and MyTravel landing their A320s at Mykonos and Skiathos because the runway is of acceptable length performance-wise but the pilots are a bit iffy about it?
Sounds to me like a couple of disgruntled pilots used to 10,000ft+ runways getting a bit of a shock watching the runway end looming towards them when they're used to still doing 60 knots at that point... send em charter for a Summer
