The unstabilized approach is serious but the reality that the airplane would not touch down until the last 2,500 feet of a short ("table top") runway borders on insanity on the part of the captain.
In a sense this accident (crash) is similar to the OPRN Jet Blue crash. A seriously messed up captain and a fairly experienced, but too timed F/O.
At 500 feet the AIE F/O should have shoved the throttles to "radar power" rotated, then exclaimed to the captain, "Would you like the airplane back to fly a proper approach, or should I do it?"
I feel so bad for the passengers aft of the area where the 8 survivors were seated. They survived the impact to die, probably not seriously injured, of a death by fire.
The worthless piece of **** captain died a quick death by impact.
Excuse my emotions, but they come from reading a good accident report like this one.
