Council Van, performance data has nothing to do with it. The runway is long enough and there fore an approach has commenced. This system is a dynamic assessment of your energy/altitude/speed and a bit more to notify you wether you can land and stop in the given distance. An excessive tailwind on finals is capable of triggering the system.
If you diverted to another longer runway with no excessive tailwind and were on profile, then you will not trigger the system.
