For a guy that seems to know much about the accident and what happened, you don’t know much do you.
You dind’t even know the approach plate.
Look it up yourself on FR. It’s there. Just brush up on your Polish.
We are done.
Yes, run away without answering the dozen questions I asked you. I did brush up on my Polish and read the original entire released transcript as downloaded directly from the Polish Government website.
I found that the Air Traffic Controller comments are marked with a cryllic capital D (Д)
How many "Precision Approach" calls did the ATC make in this complete transcript? Here they are, all of them, both in Polish (as best as I can read it from the poor photocopy .pdf document) and the Google Translations transliteration into English:
10:39:80.7 "101-y, odleglosc 10, wejscie na sciezke" "101-s, distance 10, the entrance to the path"One call at 10 km, one at 8, one at 4, one at 3 and one at 2 km. Consistent with ATC calling distance using traffic control radar, but nowhere near enough calls if this were a true Precision Approach Radar controlled descent. then two (ignored) calls to level off, and one urgent call to go around.
10:39:30.1 "8 na kursie i sciezce" "8 on the course and path of"
10:39:37.3 "Pas wolny" "Free belt"
10:39:40.8 "Ladowanie dodatkowo 120-3 metry" "Loading additional 120-3 meters"
10:39:49.9 "Pochodzenie do dalszej, na kursie i sciezce odleglosc 6." "Origin to continue on the path of the course and distance 6"
10:40:13.5 "4 na kursie i sciezce" "4 on the course and path of"
10:40:26.6 "3 na kursie i sciezce" "3 on the course and path of"
10:40:31.2 "Reflektory wlaczcie" "Turn the headlights"
10:40:38.7 "2 na kursie i sciezce" 2 on the course and path of"
10:40:52.4 "Horyzont 101" "Horizon 101"
10:40:54.7 "Kontrola wysokosci horyzont" "Control the height of the horizon"
10:41:02.0 "Odejs????ugi krag!" "Re-ascend for second circle!"
Therefore there was NO PAR Approach that day.
We are done.
