One of our pilots took out the fence at the cliff on the north end of TGU Honduras. Probably because he didn't compensate for the upslope runway. He got low and slow. It had no GS guidance but everybody else had no problems. Keeping up basic flying skills unfortunately now days is on the back burner so more of these incidents will happen unless we go back to when we actually made pilots prove they could fly manually. Asiana crash might get the FAA's attention of poor hand flying skills. We will see.
