The incident occurred while the crew was conducting a low-visibility approach through dense fog. During the final approach, the pilot reduced engine throttles to manage airspeed and align with the Instrument Landing System glideslope. The crew did not notice the aircraft’s dropping vertical velocity until it was too late.

I have tried to wait out a storm only to watch a bigger and badder one to move in and the overall weather situation getting worse. We should also observe the ground for other markers such as the disturbed surface of lakes, wind rushing through crop fields, blowing smoke, etc. We need to watch out for all markers of high surface winds.

He frequently hosted visiting pilots, providing them with detailed briefings of the area and the weather. The CAPE index, a measure of convective energy and instability, was below 100 joules, indicating a very low probability of severe weather or thunderstorms. Boundary layer winds were moderate at 10-20 kt out of the WNW.

A go-around is a maneuver performed to abort or reject a landing on the final approach or once the aircraft has already touched down. Weather Go-arounds due to weather occur due to wind shear caused by gusting winds or microbursts. Go-arounds have little margin for error. What Is a Go-Around?

However, in Cat II or Cat III approaches that allow pilots to land in extremely bad weather using auto land, some experts argue against going around, deeming it safer to continue with the landing. During final approach at Orly Airport, the crew received a wind-shear warning, prompting them to go around and discontinue with the landing.

This year, a promising weather forecast featuring high freezing levels (expected to be 9,000+ feet) led to a decision to fly myself. The day before departure, satisfied that days of consistent weather forecasts reasonably assured a successful flight, I cancelled the rental car reservation. So that was of no help to me.
