Will wait for the facts, but being a second generation Korean, knowing the Korean mentality, and having close friends that work in Korea, I am surprised this hasn't happened more often. Remember the Korean Air accidents of old? The culture back then is still alive and well today. From what I've read, g/s for 28l was ots. I bet these guys haven't flown a full blown visual approach in months. Remember, CRM in Korea is not the CRM you find here in the states. CRM in Korea is basically captain is god, you as a FO just stfu. Sad and dangerous. But like I said, remember those Korean Air accidents. I think one was caused because the FO just watched the captain fly into the side of a mountain. Something to think about.

Great perspective Nick.

Had a friend who was on contract for a large Korean airline and he said that "it was only a matter of time before a Korean airline had another hull loss."

check out the lady in the green shirt, just been in a plane crash went down the slide with the aircraft on fire and still managed to get her carry on bag! priceless!!!
 
Having taught Korean students for ab initio training I can tell you that while the Koreans were much much better students than the Chinese students I had, if anything presented itself out of the norm, the students would lock up and not know what to do.

Looking at the crash scene, how could the top of the aircraft burn while the wings remained intact?

I was talking with the FAA public affairs guy for west coast operations for an article I was doing for my old employer and he said the same thing. He referenced a good book that highlighted a Korean Air crash and how they brought in some US folks to train them in CRM because it didnt exist at the time. I cant recall the name of the book.
 
Quick.....Lets start a drinking game.....

What's the key word....?

Can't wait to see CNN's coverage when the next U.S. volcano has a major eruption.

CNN: " a volcano is basically a mountain with a vent in it. It spews ash, rock and a substance that scientist call, 'Lava'!!!!! Lava can be a hot liquid that burns things!"

54% of TV viewers: "Oooohhhhh!!!! Hey honey, Wolf Blizter said that red stuff is called lava! Weird, remember when you bought me a soap that had the same name?"
