Your analysis is sound, and particularly so when read in conjunction with the graphic at #506. It brings together elements which several posters have been developing in the last week or so and presents a feasible scenario.

However, as is often the case in raises a new question !

If the General was indeed reading and calling the QFE based Baro alt, why did he not express alarm (to put it mildly!!!) as the baro-alt continued to wind down relentlessly towards zero in those 6 seconds of steady 100m RA?

At the time of the go around call from the 2P the baro-alt must have been reading 20m and falling.

It is odd that there is nothing on the CVR to indicate the fact that the General must have been horrified at what he was reading and would surely have been expected to have made some exclamation???

Unless he was distracted....was he too looking out for lights in those critical few seconds for example?
