If the Jeju aircraft had skidded off the end of the runway into a sand trap, catch fence, mudflats, etc., It would not have been nearly such a tragedy. How a reinforced concrete structure to hold up the ILS equipment was approved is beyond me.
I was concerned that this was some kind of Russian operation to distract from their little shootdown incident, but it appears to be an unfortunate coincidence that 2 jet airliners hit the ground with a loss of hydraulics in 2 days.
in other aviation news, Russia has figured out how to make Shahed drones in country in large quantities.
