All hypothetical of course, but I wonder if a bus with GS mini would have yielded the same outcome. Boeing does not have GS mini as far as I know. If it was a microburst there might have been a GPWS warning on the CVR (before the stall warning?). In terms of game theory, the legal/company rules might make pilots less inclined to do a go around on second attempt. (i.e. if 'One attempt, two attempt, divert.' applies and you do not want to divert...) All that pressure can take its toll on speed monitoring as well. Anyone seeing similarities to Turkish Airlines in Amsterdam? (aircraft, emerging market airlines, possibly speed issue, possibly go-around not done [in time] when it should have been etc.)
