Still trying (with ´Big Tudor) manfully to try and drag this away from the vulture mentality into looking at Danny´s fatigue points.

A recommendation that go-around manoeuvres below decision height should be a mandatory part of recurrent training seems useful because it would help pilots override a "must land" mindset.
Good idea in my book, and one of the things I started discouraging some years ago was the dialling-up of the ground frequency (if any) on finals, which could pre-condition the ´land´ mental picture. Leaving the radar frequency in place is better.

Can we now leave THIS crew alone - please, or are we all going to conduct our own ´accident investigation´ here over and over again?
