Great Dismal Swamp Crash

Perhaps because you were flying into an airport with a precision approach AND runway much better aligned with the significant winds that day.

Interesting - I've never been to PVG and didn't realize it didn't have a precision approach. I recall the CPK AWOS was advertising something like 400 and 2, which was amazing optimistic. When I busted out, I was about 250' AGL and couldn't see halfway down the 5500' runway at CPK.

I wonder if the PVG AWOS was similarly optimistic?
