His Dudeness
I can get my head around a pilot banging it down on the numbers at 135KTS when VREF should have been 108KTS and thinking OK I am fast but I can get the thing stopped on this limited runway
I cannot get my head around and I am sure you as an experienced Captain cannot get your head around touching down with 370 meters of available runway still remaining at 135KTS without the thought that I might as well put a bullet through my head as do this suicidal landing pressure or no pressure.
from the cockpit that distance remaining would have looked like nothing
for that reason I still feel the guy was not all together for whatever reason? It was not a Bravado thing but a certain death decision and if he was of sound mind he knew that as would you or I
