Talpa-arc trying to give more realistic line pilot figures for landings with/without failures. The previous were test pilot figures, we are not test pilots.

That said, failures like G+Y failure make runway choice a bit of an issue. I think there has to be an element of airmanship about the use of these distances. Would you fly around on the blue system for an extended period of time with GY fail to find a runway that suited? I know I would find the longest runway with ballpark length close by and go into 3 reds shortly before landing.
