Yea and the numb nuts flying the airplane did not know what he was doing either! Typical of these guys, (I have been an instructor over there for years) is that they put young kids through flight school, then into a light airplane and then on the line with around 220 hours total flight hours. They know the procedures and books very well but do not have the experience to fly in difficult conditions.
This approach was descent until he got low, then watch the way the pilot lets the right wing up into the wind. The wind then picks the wing up and almost grounds the left wingtip, which would have caused a crash.
These guys need to practice a whole lot more then go and try some of the really difficult airports like Hong Kong or in South America. This did not need to happen...
