Jackson Hole incident today...

How about landing in the zone on speed or if you are not JUST GO AROUND STUPID. These incidents don't need to happen.

They COULD extend the runway...


But NOOOOOOOOOOO! It's inside a National Park. The "environmental impact" is too great.


How much negative environmental impact will there be when an airplane inevitably goes off that runway and explodes in a ball of smoke and flame?

How long is that runway ?

It looks like the transating cowling cracks open at touchdown, closes and then fully opens (albeit too late). I wonder if there was an issue with getting the reversers to deploy.

I hate to feed the troll, but it looks like they landed in the touchdown zone. You can see the papi zip by at about :23 during the YouTube vid.

Can AA 757's use reverser in performance calculations?
