allardjd 1,853 Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Originally there was some confusion whether this was an undershoot or an overrun. Since the AC was still floating some speculated that it pivoted on a grounded engine and was pointing opposite the way it landed. That turns out not to be the case and it was in fact an undershoot.
