To date all inferences have been drawn by one passenger stating that he saw the Truk Stop Hotel out of the port side of the aircraft. I also read another account (perhaps from that same pax) stating that it was not raining at the time.
Meanwhile, the airline still has not corrected its assertion that it landed short of the runway.

Suggest you read my post #42 again. The Captain told them.
