Oh yes, I already agreed. Anyone can see the aircraft went too low.

Now, to understand why?

Why not meaningful preparations and planning for the Presidential visit?
Why no current approach charts from the Russians, for a Presidential visit?
Why did the controller called down the glide slope as if it was OK?
Why has the airfield trees that were too high?
Why weren't the approach lights set up to regulations.
Why no real preparations in case anything went wrong, for a Presidential visit?
Why was there no designated alternate airport announced and planned?
Are we really convinced the rescue services were able to attend promptly.
Are we really convinced the crash investigation was proper, for a Presidential visit?

I think a few too many questions for the Russian side to be comfortable with, but that's just where I get my impressions from the Polish report. The results from the Polish side are a lot of senior people lose their jobs. I wonder if there will be any results from the Russian side.
