No, sir. Of all I could remember, the crews were trying to avoid hazard and save the aeroplane, even if those actions did on occasions seal their fate. Not this one.
This crew landed the aircraft inside the overspeed range, beyond the redline on the speed-meter, about 140 km/h faster than normally acceptable. Imagine yourself parking a car into a garage with a sideways-folding door that'd be unlocked yet closed. Right through them and doing 20 mph with gear engaged! That is the civil life equivalent of how they approached the touchdown zone. Dead serious, no joke.
Neither of the two, sad to say, was fit to act in the role of an Air Transport Pilot that day.
(Let's forget the gear, that is not beyond imaginable - double selection leading to a reversal of the assumed position, under mental overload.)
