Okay, I see it was the NTSB doing the reporting.
Yeah, think those lines in the snow sort of spoke for themselves.

Getting harder to explain to the CP.

Are these two still on property?

Our industry got very, very lucky with this accident. It should be a wake up call, but nothing will change.

"Radar track data show that the airplane was aligned right of runway 1 during both approaches."

The regional model continues to thrive after the Colgan accident, which should have been the defining event. The big wigs at mainline pull the strings in congress and the FAA, while continuing to reap the profits of B-scale operations without acquiring the legal/safety consequences. Nothing will change.

.....which means there should have been a second missed approach, followed by a diversion. Your opinion differs?

Prob but if the LOC received or ILS transmitter was having trouble it’s explainable - not excusable.

Problems with the LOC/ILS made their altimeter malfunction? Descending past decision height and the LOC/ILS transmitter being unreliable aren’t related.
