Condolences to family of those killed on Flight 2216.
Having flown into MWX (Muan), I was always a bit suss on the way the ILS antenna array was set on a 5m berm…definitely made the outcome of an otherwise apparently well-controlled gear-less landing turn into a disaster.

did a great job of putting it down and keeping it straight maybe should have landed in the infield for greater friction from the mud/grass. he did land long but you really can't blame the antennae location. Visibility was good enough to drop well below the g/p and drag it in to touch down

A good initial assessment by ‘Hoover’, a retired USAF F-15E pilot known for his balanced accident assessment videos, speaks to some of the issues surrounding the accident. A significant factor in the crash was the ILS antenna structure, as noted earlier.
