Cleaned the thread up, I apologize for the immature behavior MikeySM. Thanks for posting the story, I can't believe how close that plane got to hitting some of the bystanders! I wonder why the pilot had such difficulties seeing the start of the runway..

Thanks, no need to apologise though 
I didn't know this story was 2 months old. It was all over the web and papers yesterday and today. Strange but nevermind lol
i couldnt see it posted anywhere on FSW so thought I would share for the ones who havnt seen it.

Perceptual error
Inadequate knowledge - unfamiliarity with airport layout
Exceptional error - use of displaced threshold for landing
