Anchorage in February. Braking action medium to poor, blowing snow, and a 767 full of somebody else's online order. Landed, taxied, drank coffee, went to the hotel. Twenty years of this and the airplane still does exactly what the numbers said it would. That is the whole miracle and nobody writes about it.

Somebody wrote about it. You just did.

The numbers working is underrated. Every accident report I have read starts with somebody deciding the numbers were a suggestion.
