After reading the NTSB info, it seems this landing was possible but with little room for error. I think I am on solid ground when I assert that SW pilots make more landings than virtually any other major airline pilot out there. You could not ask for a more experienced crew to attempt the landing. Unfortunately they are human and it appears they did not make a perfect approach and landing under conditions requiring near perfection. I hope they are cleared of "wrong doing" because this sounds like the kind of incident that could happen to any of us.
