Awww. Poor kunfu panda. Fact of the matter, this is some interesting drama that warrants interesting responses. Bottom line... no one got hurt... got to be thankful for that. Apart from that, it doesn't take a crash investigator to tell that the crew screwed up their visual circling to land R27... they didn't declare minimum fuel for a diversion to Arusha... landed without a clearance, and surely heard their plane call out 500' AGL when they would have had 2000' left in their descent to the proper TDZE in Kili. This after the dreamlifter lands at a GA airport not even a month ago. Got to love how Ethiopian downplayed the incident in their press release on their website...
