Probable cause
FAILURE OF THE PILOT TO GO AROUND AFTER LANDING LONG & RECOVERING FROM A BOUNCED LANDING. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS WERE: THE PILOT'S EXCESSIVE AIRSPEED ON THE APCH, HIS IMPROPER FLARE FOR THE LANDING, HIS FAILURE TO ATTAIN THE PROPER TOUCHDOWN POINT, AND THE AIRPORT FACILITY (LOCALIZER TRANSMITTER) BEYOND THE END OF THE RUNWAY.
