As a verifiable fact, Asiana was on a "lazy" *14* mile final, below normal descent profile and at an airspeed below the gear and flap extension speed for a 777.

Seriously, why do people keep making this twaddle up about this being some kind of crazy slam dunk approach?

They were not turned in short.

They were not turned in high

They were not turned in fast.

Why do people keep insisting this was a factor?
