I disagree,a change of runway is something we deal with on a regular basis.Ok,the notams should have been read to avoid a double brief,but even if they had read the notes,does that mean they wouldnt make the same mistake?
Althought initially high,my reading of the report is that they stabilised in good time.
The nighttime photos are frightening,I empathise with this crew I have to say,a very human error,and lets be honest we have all had our moments.
34 at Dublin is always least favored by pilots and ATC,the FAF distance makes it look like you got oodles of time,but the VOR is away out in North Co.Dublin.
I was amazed they got planning for this particular eyesore of a hotel,taller than any other structure within a close radius of the airport.There is a mention of planning guideline rules regarding structures in the report.And a suggestion that rules were not followed,I wonder if that will be followed up?Probably not.
