A lot of people are bringing up thrust reversers in this conversation and I feel it's important to note that the Phenom 100 does not have thrust reversers. It also does not have spoilers of any kind. It has anti skid, and that's it.

I no longer have the performance books, but if it was raining and they actually had the 9 knot tail wind that was reported in the NTSB report, I'd be willing to bet that stopping distance would be almost all of the available runway.
You're pretty much correct. See post #7. From the info I gathered it was legal but close! Not leaving any room for even the slightest mechanical problem or off speed or off slope or off TDZ. Now I know we are all Monday morning QB'ing it here but we as pilots do that and trying to learn from it.
