So many areas of stupidity involved in this incident that its a miracle no one died.
As my dear old Dad used to say, "there's room for luck in this game".
Luck, grace and favor is whenever a new pilot gets hit with an unexpected gust of wind and is able to keep the the plane in a climb on take off....continuing an approach to a snow covered runway in less than minimal conditions is insane.
Couldn't agree more, but without a little divine intervention, serendipity, luck or whatever you don't want to call it, they both would have been in the middle of the runway, etc., etc. This one doesn't require a great deal of analysis. Cheers!
A little more detail, very little more...

Wasn't a crash landing- crash occurred rolling out didn't it? That's what the Windows are for. Look through them!
