Another regional jet crash

Here's a pretty good video of the landing.an, looked like he landed with too much speed. Plane smacked the runway pretty hard.


This video explains a lot regarding both the initial questions I had about the post-crash fire AND the reason for the crash in the first place. Any time you see the nose wheel touching at nearly the same moment as the main gear, the approach is not setup correctly. The nose attitude of the RJ is low as it crosses the runway threshold; as if the pilots are attempting to correct being too high on the glide slope. That approach was too hot with far too much sink rate. Hopefully we will soon learn the reason(s) for the landing (attempt) being in that posture. :covri:
