Exactly, the thing with the 747 is the pilots didn't get any chanse for a "go around" at that approach, the approach path was set so low that the 747 wouldn't have time to build up enough power to lift the aircraft up again after the turn. If the pilots are out of direction after the turn they only have one option: correct it or hit the dirt or water.

Good thing they closed that airport.
