So I guess, do try this at home, just not in your own personal 787 in real life. But it would be cool to see a low pass ...
Well....you posted the Airport Panning chart for the 787-9, and I think there might an issue with the document for the 787-9, since the airfield landing characteristics listed in the current document (3.4.3 & 3.4.4) are the same for both Flaps 25 and Flaps 30 setting. That said, I think a near ZFW 787-9 with good headwind wind and standard day -15c could possibly land at YTZ.
Eddie was clearly flying the 787-10, so here are the Standard Day airfield landing requirements for the 787-10, and at a ~4,700ft runway requirement I don't see how a 787-10 could land a YTZ without a dip in the lake.
