This kinda reminds me of that Asian-based airline ( I can't remember the name Korean Air?) That had the field in sight at night and was on the visual. Well there was a mountain between them and the airport that they never saw because of the darkness, although they had the field in sight, the came at the right place at the right time and fell below glidepath. They slammed into the mountain never knowing it was there. I'd make sure that I was well set up for this approach before accepting any kinda of clearance at night. |
