Runway could do with a clean with all that rubber

Transpose the scene to Essendon Runway 17 and it wouldn't be a good look. Emas would have been useful?

The went for a swim some 3000m down a runway and grass. Yeah EMAS would have helped, as would nets, arrestor wires and hooks and probably a risk assessment and use of TOGA switches and maybe even a short hold.

they made a pretty significant error. Many things could have helped.

Staying home that day would have fixed it.
