: I always try a "back translation" to see what it produces...while technically "undershoot" can mean "land early" I think many people would understand this suggestion to mean the plane landed at 5:15 instead of 5:30.

Thank you. In general you're right, but there is always a context there with which the reader is led to the sense the writer wants. We have heard lots in the news that:هواپیما به دلیل فرود زودهنگام دچار حادثه شد. Many thanks for your comment again.
