This accident could be similar to the one that happened to a 744 at Frankfurt where the pilot was flying the approach manually and drifting fog started covering the runway from the far end causing an illusion of overshoot and he inadvertently kept adjusting by pushing the nose down and in the rapidly reducing visibility got fixated and failed to notice GPWS warnings resulting in an undershoot and hit the raised approach lights 700 mtrs. short but was successful in executing a go around.
