Consistency is good, but accuracy is better....

Loc is irrelevant.
FAR 91.176
“3) Visibility and visual reference requirements. No pilot operating under this section or §§121.651, 125.381, or 135.225 of this chapter may continue an approach below the authorized DA/DH and land unless:
...
(A) The pilot must identify the runway threshold using at least one of the following visual references—

(1) The beginning of the runway landing surface;

(2) The threshold lights; or

(3) The runway end identifier lights.

(B) The pilot must identify the touchdown zone using at least one of the following visual references—

(1) The runway touchdown zone landing surface;

(2) The touchdown zone lights;

(3) The touchdown zone markings; or

(4) The runway lights.“

I think it’s safe to say these parameters were not met.

No, it's not, unless this is a normal set of callouts at the bottom of an ILS:

"Minimums."
"Runway in sight, 10 o'clock."
"Landing."

Any more questions or doubts?

Or as Phantomhawk said, reasonable people knew what happened weeks ago...

And then having the runway at 9 o’clock...

You guys reading my messages? I said it’s inexcusable.

At a guess? I doubt they are STRONGLY in favor. What would you expect?

Nice that no one was badly hurt though.

Not one of THEIR airplanes.
Plausible deniability.

Was it United 3407 or Colgan 3407? At the end of the day when the dust settles, the legacies will throw their contractors to the wolves in a heartbeat while doing everything in their power to distance themselves from any sort of culpability.
