Probable cause

The copilot's failure to compensate for wind conditions, resulting in excessive airspeed, and his failure to attain the proper runway touch down point. Factors were inadequate dispatch procedures and the captain's improper inflight planning/decision in that runway conditions were not requested or obtained; a tail wind, a wet downhill runway, hydroplaning conditions, and the captain's failure to adequately supervise the copilot.
