Foxy, I feel very sad indeed for everyone involved in this tragedy.
However, we must not forget the factors that led up to the accident lest they recur.
I don't think anyone is going to forget the factors involved, here. From the ATC side we are reminded of the necessity of standard RT, maneuvers on final approach and understanding the limitations of low hour pilots. Pilots are reminded of the risks involved in not cleaning an aicraft up for a go around.

We've all taken these lessons to heart, unfortunately this thread seems to have degenerated an us and them pissing match, all of the pertinent points have been examined and debated for the last 6 pages of this thread and a few others on the board, I dont think we can add anything new to it

As Foxy says lets take away the parts that will make us better, safer controllers and pilots and let this discusion drop.
