Given mm43's chart. The only theory that reasonably explains the accident is a too early transition to a visual approach. Otherwise, how do you get so far down in the weeds, (assuming that the altimetry was functioning properly).
Even given an early transition to visual, there were some cross checks with the RADALT and altimeter should have been done that would have probably saved the day. Fatigue?
The CVR transcript will be interesting.
