At some stage you have to put that bird back on the ground.
Do the A380's not have an inflight performance section in the QRH?
I was keeping it simple as real pilots will get the general idea...
No. There is no performance section in the QRH...
I know it will stop on that runway. My colleagues know it will stop on that runway... Management will issue a Warning if a 'Too short' warning is ignored... It's all a Frying Pan V Fire kind of thing; however, once the Pan call is made after diversion is made and fuel potentially tight then an approach to land can be continued even if the 'glitch' reoccurs...
