Probably very poorly prepared for short diversion
Pure speculation.

probably never been there before
same again.

plenty of opportunity to mis set ILS QDM's etc.
Just like ANY flight then (and more speculation).

Aircraft hits grass with such force that they leave a main wheel behind - that is some impact!
At last, something factual.

How much fuel was left? Fumes.
Erm, more speculation.

I have done Liege - STN many times in the past and can imagine the poor crew may have been completely exhausted through out.
And equally they may not have been. More speculation.

Well done lads
What?

this deserves an extensive inquest
I think you will find that the AAIB will conduct an extensive accident investigation.

I'm quite worried by this one.
I think we all are, so FACT would help and the AAIB report will be the definitive document, so shall we wait for that or failing that just put theories forward rather than wild speculation about things like how much fuel they had on board?
