For the sake of my education ...
Was it fault of pilots of failing to do the 'go around' maneuver or the ATC guy who asked them to do it ? Or some thing else ? Or combination of a few things ?

Dear friend Mr. Joel Wiley , thanX a ton for the link. I went through it as closely as a lay man possibly can !
Two sentences of the report confuse me .
First , the report does not ascribe blame on any one or any thing.
Secondly , it describes distinctly the status of the of shifting headwinds at the landing time .
Is is that attempts are made to involve the Almighty (Wind gods) ? To save skin/s of some ?
Regards

1. It's a preliminary report w/o conclusions.
2. Wind shear was a condition about that time but I don't have the knowledge/expertise to opine if it was a factor or not.
