I agree with NigelOnDraft about the importance of the stabilised approach and have pointed out several times e.g. post 2572 almost exactly one year ago that this approach did not meet the usual criteria. There are plenty of other contributory factors. But as a trainer on the 737 this accident is the perfect demonstration of why being spooled up at the latest at 1000 feet in IMC is important.
