Chuks.

The report tells us, for instance, that the accident crew intercepted the localiser at 5.5 nm. That is obviously very tight so that the next question must be "Why did that happen?" Were they following an ATC clearance that required that outcome or did they have, perhaps, too high a speed (when these are two things that might lead to this outcome from which we should draw very different conclusions)?
Outsider here and not familliar with Schipol, but I've read virtually everything on this thread since the day of the accident. Without going back through a great many posts to verify, I have the strongest recollection of THY1951 being vectored originally to a different runway and shifted to the destination runway by ATC.

If that is wrong, my apologies.

Roger.
