The original question was a perfectly reasonable one, given the passengerīs reported view of the GA. If the GA was indeed caused by a severe gust at very low level, just how close would the aircraft have been to hitting the ground on the GA with the nose (and therefore the main carriage) significantly yawed off the runway centre-line? This in most cases would be a crash. I note that of the many disparaging remarks that have already been made in reply to the original post, not many have actually addressed the potentially significant question posed.
