Tribhuvan International Airport crash video - unstable landing, multiple cockpit warnings

51 out of 71 killed - pilot had mental health issues, had resigned but was required to continue working "until discharged." Multiple cockpit warnings as they have a very unstable approach. Plane damn near hits the control tower.
The crew ignored all sorts of warnings, and took quite a while to realize the gear was not down.
"When we analyzed the conversation on the Cockpit Voice Recorder, it was clear to us that the captain was harbouring severe mental stress. He also seemed to be fatigued and tired due to lack of sleep — he was crying on several occasions."
—?Final accident report by the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal

I can't stand "transition" periods in these sort of professions. Military, political, aviation, etc. When someone says they're done, they're done.
Not surprised it's in Asia, but frick man. If someone's done let them go.

I think the narrator works for ATT
I've definitely talked to that guy on the phone before.

So what happened after landing?
It looks like the plane landed then there is some sort of explosion.

Wow, I spent 6 months there on a deployment/tdy and flew various times on those airlines. I can tell you first hand. Crazy experience riding in those aircraft. Most of the flying is done line of sight.

I have a strange obsession with TheFlightChannel (AKA MyFlightChannel) on youtube. This channel does some really great airline incident recreations using the most current flight simulator software available.
