Alas, it's not just the Sun. Bloomberg, that supposedly sober provider of financial news, is now seemingly going into the ASI calibration business:
The plane was moving more quickly than normal as it landed
and hit the ground hard, according to a Bloomberg reporter who
was aboard. Passengers felt at least one tire blow, and the plane
veered to the left and then the right before coming to a halt
about 10 yards (10 meters) short of the landing lights at the end
of the runway and 200 yards from the water of the docks, he said.
At least the article didn't mention how many yards away the nearest primary school/hospital was.
