Your commentary is the most pathetic. Most fortunate that the flight did not end up in a certain documentary series a year or two from now.
In the airline I work we operate a larger fleet and we had ONE runway excursion more than a decade ago. This airline had four runway excursions in the last five years. We never had any incident descending below the profile. This airline had two just in 2023. It's not that they lost 500 ft, in both cases they should be at 2000 and were at 800 ft. In the latest case they went roller coaster after they disengaged the AP. Let's wait for the report, I guess it will be like the rest of the reports for this airline, putting the blame in pilot selection and training. If it wasn't a European airline, all these incidents would have put it in the black list.
Flying is generally safe, just avoid the red flags.
