"Snowbird" wrote in message om... the last 3rd of a 6,500 ft runway. Dunno what the tailwind was -- nothing too startling (10-12 kts?) That is a very significant tailwind for landing; it would not surprise me if a 10 knot tailwind doubled your landing roll vs. a 10 knot headwind or if the total landing distance increased between 50% and 100%. -- Richard Kaplan, CFII www.flyimc.com
