I was called in the office for landing at 1100m, the reported tail wind was 13kts but it was 21kts on the FDR, was told I must not land outside the TD zone, told the habibi that the OMA says that the captain should consider a G/A, I considered it and decided to land, was then told its the safer option to G/A in this case, told habibi that with the performance degradation its better to land if the runway is long enough. some group of pilots only worked in EK and believe the EK way is the only way.
