Runways are approached from both ends depending on the wind.
There are airports in which approaches always or very nearly always follow the same profiles given local conditions. SFO, SJC, and SAN would be three examples off the top of my head.
SFO's major approaches are over the bay, opposite approaches would involve rapid descents dictated by mountains near the airport.
SJO and SAN are both limited by proximate downtowns with tall towers. Nominal approach glide paths cut below the rooflines of several structures, and make for some interesting experiences for arriving travellers.
What’s noteworthy, there’s a note to use extreme caution due to this wall if landing or taking off towards it.
it seems this is the same structure:

3800 - 2800 = 1km.
Did the plane skid for 1km before crashing into the obstacle?

Are we expected to believe these pages never got crawled before?
Can we learn a forensic lesson for this and automatically snapshot similar pages for all runways worldwide?
