The QNH was 1008 so about 150 feet difference from 1013. The minimum was 620 feet (358 above ground). Even with the wrong setting there should have still been some margin for a go-around. Tripoli is not exactly thousands of feet up.
I also do not understand why they flew a non precision approach in light winds to land on 09 rather than an ILS on 27 particularly when taxying time and the rising sun appears to favour a landing on 27. Is there some prefered runway or other reason for this?
Crashing a widebody at your homebase is quite a feat but I guess complacency and fatigue must play a role. At least we won't have to wait too long for a verdict from the recorders.
It has not been a happy 12 months for the 330 however good it looks.
