Some explanation for my comments:
arrakis:
The eastern runway threshold coordinates are exactly the same on both charts.
So? Why bring the subject up?
AFAIK it's not a truck mounted system but a fixed one.
Well, I have no idea -we have had so much here about the mobile soup kitchens and this radar and that radar I just got confused
exactly what kind of approach they were flying?
At this rate we will never know. Almost certainly NOT ground controlled though.
Have the 101 crew done the same, relying to much on their FMS system?
It does not matter! It was altitude (or lack of) that killed them, not left or right of centreline. Looking at the wreckage plots I would estimate they were pretty well spot on the centreline at first impact, certainly with respect to a non-precision approach.
Reg:
No, don't stop! As long as we can stay away from the conspiracy posts and too much detail about intricate pieces of Russian radar etc which - as far as we can see - are not relevant, plus mysterious statements in Russian/Polish which we cannot understand, what you are posting is good.
did not order them to go around.
I thought the command was given? 'Horizon' or something - NB even if ATC 'order' a g/a they cannot MAKE an a/c do it.
Like dvv I am at a loss to understand the Yak40 'interview'
Until we get more information from the FDR or a 'new' CVR transcript my personal belief remains. What we must not lose sight of is the tragic loss suffered by the Polish nation in this accident.
