Thanks Exeng
Yes I see now.
I find it (still) odd to do after having lowered them in the first place 10 seconds earlier. AND worse the gear was down. Although they already knew something was wrong with the engines, they treated the approach like a classic one with early configuration.
But once again, not trying to blame anybody, as who knows if they could have made it past the houses, as the runway was obviously out of gliding distance.
