Obviously I'm not suggesting any such thing. The Stansted incident was brought up in post #99 and subsequently; I quoted the AAIB on that incident. The AAIB hasn't said anything about the Guernsey incident that I've seen.
Obviously the Guernsey incident that was the original subject of this thread is totally different in various ways. At Stansted the mode of failure was different and the captain was "aware that a considerable amount of runway remained ahead of the aircraft" (said AAIB) so that he had the option to make a split-second decision to put it back on the ground, which he did, and everyone walked away.
The similarity pointed out in post #99 is that both crews are castigated by people who weren't there* (but not by the AAIB in the Stansted case) for failing to follow standard procedures; yet both crews' decisions resulted in safe outcomes.
* And Dan, who was there, but has been pretty much dismissed in this thread.
