What was the Il-76 which went around supposed to bring there? The Poles were aware it was coming so I assume it was related to their trip.

I can't help wondering, even if they had decided to go around in time, how their plan to go around "v avtomate" would've worked out.

The crew wasn't flying it, the FMS was. I am pretty sure that's where the prob was, the approach was not in the database, so they programmed it in manually. What if someone hit the wrong button
