Aviation safety expert David Learmount said that if there had been no “obstruction,” the plane “would have come to rest with most, perhaps all, of the occupants still alive.”

Mr. Rearmount said the landing was “as good as a flapless/gearless touchdown – wings high, nose not too high to avoid breaking the tail” – and that the plane slid down the runway and suffered no major damage.

“The reason so many people died was not because of the landing, but because the aircraft hit a very strong obstacle just beyond the end of the runway,” he said.
