Any chance of an English translation so that we can trash:
pilot, airline, journalist according to taste :)

So basically it didn't almost stall at all, but had some wing icing which led to some aerodynamic buffet. Big deal.

Moderators- request you remove this silliness. A little buffet on approach, increase speed gets rid of, problem over, normal landing. Thought to be connected with wing icing. Non event.

The headline is stupid and false. There is really nothing to add to nothing. Leaving this here will cause excitement about nothing.
