What the crew were thinking? Who knows? When you land at an airfield thats
really short 1620m, with destination still 27 nm away, in this case behind you,
you may want to start scratching your head. There are no runway lights,
approached, nav aids, markers at Arusha. Its a VFR field. If you approach HTKJ,
in a 767, you would normally have all nav aids etc programmed in, right?
So they made a visual approach, with out any of the normal landing aids?
I can think of a Korean airline that could use these guys in a training role.
