Asiana runway excursion in Hiroshima

[CONF iture]

Visual contact with the runway is lost at MDA.
But keep going down for 30 seconds ... until crash happens.

On a lighter note... "Hold your uncles".

So if you continue below minimums for half a minute, you will crash. Ok. You see, there is always something to learn from every published report.

Yeah it seems the Captain busted the minimums on purpose, misusing the RA to gauge terrain clearance. And I bet it wasn't the first time he's done this...

On a lighter note... "Hold your uncles".

Classic!

[daelight]

Look out, good ol' western 'them odd-lookin' and odd-thinkin' Asians' set to TOGA!

Asian culture crashed this jet, case closed.

Second writeoff in a year for busting minimums at a significant carrier. The other was TransAsia doing similar in a heavy rainstorm. F/O didn't challenge the captain in the Transasia case. What happened in the Asiana case?

[Jwscud]

The CVR reads fairly similarly to both the Guam and Stansted 747 accidents, where others on the FD clearly knew the Captain was incorrect but were unwilling to say "GO AROUND" - in this case, the FO seems to have known they weren't visual but didn't have the assertiveness required to call a GA.
