...but it was an undershoot, so none of that is relevant unless the crew were twitched into getting down on or before the piano keys. Will be interesting to see whether same crew as diverted on the previous evening if the FR aircraft movement history is correct.
By the way, over 24hrs ago Jimmy Emilio, general manager of Chuuk Airport at Weno in Micronesia, told Reuters by telephone that “it was supposed to land but instead of landing it was 150 yards short and she went down,” so I'd say he should know.
