This doesn’t seem amazing. It seems like a pilot that doesn’t know when to call off a landing or to just land somewhere else.

I know that neither of those options are great but a crash landing is far worse. If you don’t know if it is safe to land, don’t try to land.

It could have been a tower issue but usually the pilot has enough information to make a good decision.

The pilot did everything right here.
