Having 5700+ hours I can tell you the majority causal factor is human error and when alleged "journalists" focus always on the age of the aircraft, its a dead giveaway they haven't a clue what they are talking/writing about. In this particular case, having heard the recordings between air traffic control and the pilot, neither mentioned or questioned "altimeter setting" which is a priority to getting your altitude reading correct and as such, the preliminary findings show the aircraft did hit power lines on final approach
