The runway was 32. It cannot be good when the local press has file photos of your overruns. The is the third Trans States (call sign: Waterski, how appropriate) overrun at CYOW. The report on the one in 2004 was kind of ugly, poor, unstabilized approach, long landing, etc.

Lack of grooved surfaces, hell, lack of piloting.

I really hope that you work for the NTSB and have collected all of the FACTS about this incident if you are going to claim that this was caused by lack of piloting. If that is not the case, I think you need to take a step back and try thinking before you speak. The real problem here is that Canada has decided not to groove runways and an airline has jet aircraft with no thrust reversers equipped on them.

Accidents happen to good pilots and not so good ones. No Monday morning QB's needed here. Until the facts come out, lets just be thankful that no one was hurt. Airplanes are easier to fix than people are. Hopefully more info will be available soon, guess I ain't flying 840 on this trip.

Yea. What Herbie said...and I suppose you're god's gift to the cockpit? Step back and let the facts come out before you speculate and/or burn this crew at the cross.

Speaking of appropriate....this comment. You're a class act.

So just to be clear....you think that this has happened at the same airport and in the same nonthrust reverser aircraft and it is obviously the pilots fault?

Wow thanks for withholding judgment until the facts are all in. I was the FO on the second overrun incident and I am not sure how I would have dealt with a post like this. My first reaction is anger, but then when I think about it the problem is your insecurity. I can honestly say that I hope nothing like this ever happens to you and your passengers, but I do hope that in the future you will wait more the 12 hours to start blaming the pilots (your counterparts!).

The day I get lectured by someone who MAYBE gets 15 landings every three months about piloting abilities is the day I'll seriously consider going into the Adult entertainment industry.

As a "CA" flying two long range airplanes I would have imagined you've been around a while...but your post hints at something else.

In fact...I'mma keep it real....I bet I have more landings the past 5 days than you've accumulated in the last 6 months.

Strong vocalization from your rectal opening is strong.

Read the Canadian TSB report that I was referring to, FIRST, then you can make more informed comments. I was referring to the TSA's record of overruns at CYOW.

Saluki pilot, you are the one making judgements without facts, the presence or absence of grooving may have been a factor at all. 35 years, 5 types rating, 3 military types and 12,000 hours, want to trade jobs?

Apologies would be in order, if I was making reference to conclusions on THIS incident, I wasn't.

Always fun, winding up the young and impressionable
