I verified that the FR24 ADS-B position reporting was accurate by looking at the departure and the 13 Jan arrival into Bishkek.




I plotted the "additional data" FR24 released to augment the final approach. In addition, I adjusted the reported altitude up by 300 feet to account for the high pressure.




The approach is offset by more than two miles from where any published approach provides.
TK6491 descended below any appropriate altitude before commencing the go-around.
TK6491 appears to have over-rotated and zoom-climbed. The final resting place suggest it stalled and crashed nearly directly below.

Satcom Guru: TK6491 747-400F MyCargo/ACT Airlines, Manas Airport (FRU/UCFM) in Bishkek
