The AAIB report makes the most nightmarish reading I've had in a long time. The crew seemed to be barely in control of the aircraft from takeoff, never mind the landing. That's grim. Even setting aside the alcohol issue, the risk level was incredibly high given their inability to cope with normal operations for the type and their disengagement from SOP. I sincerely hope that those circumstances are rare in the aviation world.
