I assume, that the airplane landed, overran the runway end, and stopped just short of the approach lights, with the crew being unaware of the overrun.
I would have thought that even the most Mickey Mouse of Third World crews would have known that they had run out of runway!
The lack of lights, rough ground under-wheel and bits of fence, approach light, localiser antennae and clouds of dirt etc filling the windshield would be a bit of a giveaway!
But an interesting theory none the less - I might well stand corrected!
