Mesosphere. Thank you very much indeed for going to all that trouble to translate. A good "who-dunnit" story indeed - but the real truth lies in modern terms and that is the captain flew below the published circling minima in conditions below the landing minima and therefore CFIT. Similar accidents have filled accident reports since aviation began - and unfortunately will continue to do so.
