Boeing Company (BA)

Got that one to play.

Pretty interesting. I can’t see where he touched down on the runway but it looks like it’s near the start.

Flaps were out, so his landing speed was probably pretty much by the book. Spoilers were out too, so there must’ve been some sort of hydraulic system still operating.

I didn’t see either TR deployed.

Wonder how much fuel and cargo he had on board. If he was loaded, it would have added to the length required to stop it.

If he didn’t have the TR’s and no anti skid, and was heavy with fuel and cargo? Might not have had a prayer to stop it. He had to use the brakes HARD, the tires flat spotted and blew. Subsequent ground loop.
