The flight had been briefed to be at 100 ft along R/W 34 L.
Perhaps due to the realignment with grass R/W 34 R the aircraft used some of its potential energy (now only height and airspeed, with flight idle having been set at 12.44.14) the descent to 46 ft became inevitable. This required more of a climb than had been planned - or an earlier selection of TOGA by a few seconds ( 10 ?).


Many pilots must have learned a valuable lesson since seeing what happened.


PS. Some could be younger, too !
