Thanks for the input, but I have the same feelings as SuperFlyBoy on this one, how hard is it to land in Mumbai, Kochi, Delhi, etc... in good weather, with a long runway and overall everything normal. I'd say it was also get drunk in the terminal quicker, but you can't really find booze in the airports. I'm going to go with just a lack of skills to smoothly glide the plane to the runway and keep my fingers crossed that they train their pilots to take it a little easier on the planes. Until then, I'll just have to keep enjoying these speedy landings!
