It almost sounds like reverse thrust came on at least one engine.

Steeper than normal glideslope and offset from runway center line.



Best guess yet. I hadn't thought of that, but it's a distinct possibility.
A loss of one engine would not be that big an issue at that stage of the
flight, even with full flaps out, but a reverser deployment woud make a ot
of sense from what I've heard about the accident. Thee are a LOT of
safeties on the reversers, but it has happened to airplanes in the past.
