Sarcasm EISNN is the lowest form of being a twit. It was the EI385 but I was typing after 36 hours of being awake, a delayed departure from IAH, seven hours forty minutes of light to moderate turbulence on BA196 and a further two hours drive after leaving SNN I'm willing to admit to a typo - something you obviously have never done.

As far as the landing at SNN was concerned, where I've been landed as a passenger frequently since 1963, this was exceptional in so far as the wind was from 270, gusting sharply and to have first contact with the ground so far down the runway was - in my considerable experience as a passenger at SNN, having observed thousands of landings at SNN from the ground, having been landed hundreds of times as a passenger at airports around the world, including hundreds of jump seat hours prior to 9/11 - very unusual.
