The flight crew of the first airplane in queue on taxiway C (UAL1) transmitted statements regarding ACA759, one of which mentioned the alignment of ACA759 with the taxiway while ACA759 was on short final (see figures 2 and 3).
The flight crew of the second airplane in queue on taxiway C switched on their airplane’s landing lights as the incident airplane approached.
Exactly... PAL 115 most likely by their action saved the day.
