Pilot error.
Too low. Too hot.
It will be important to examine the pilot's credentials carefully. Was this individual "The Best" pilot for this flight?
Let's ask Keyra Lynn Johnson. She serves as Chief Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Social Impact Officer for Delta Air Lines.

Too low. Too hot. That sort of "arrival" also happens when you get too slow and let your sink rate go way up. As was said, I didn't see any attempt to flare.

Yeah...looked like plungged right thru the flare...no flare. Altimeter set incorrectly?
On top of that I heard wind shear was a bit challenging at that time.
Seemed like she was gliding a bit faster than normal too.

Impact Officer for Delta Air Lines!
I don’t think one should use the word impact when describing their job at an airline!!

Pilot error. ... Too low. Too hot. I'm not a pilot but they had one an TV and he thought the plane came in MUCH too SLOW for the amount of crosswind they had.
