So? Why bring the subject up?
To answer your previous question and answer someone's question regarding my opinion on what was said in the interview.
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.
Again, it would not, if they were just flying an NDB approach, but we don't know that. We don't even know for sure if it was just an approach or if they were landing (for example relying on the FMS), thus ignoring DH.

40 m left at the first tree (hit with the left wing) and 80 m left, 260 m later, when "101" lost a part of the left wing.
