Airliners.net show 2 A310's for Yemenia - F-OHPR and F-OHPS.
It appears the flight was on approach to 20 from the position of the wreckage that has been found.
I once flew the jump seat for the approach and landing to 02. I won't say which airline but it was pre Dubya paranoia. As I recall we turned final at 3,000' with some higher ground at our 4 o'clock. I don't remember it being particularly bumpy on the approach. It was late afternoon and good weather.
