The stalling angle of attack is less in ground effect, by approximately 2–4 degrees, than in free air. [ 23 ] [ 24 ] When the flow separates there is a large increase in drag. If the aircraft overrotates on take-off at too low a speed the increased drag can prevent the aircraft from leaving the ground.
The fire generated holes along the length of the fuselage roof. [19] Firefighters arrived at the scene at 10:34 p.m. KST.

The crew lost control of the aircraft. The out-of-control plane, at a speed of 275 knots, hit the ground at a dairy farm and burned.
The resultant forces caused the engines to separate from the aircraft, and it slammed into the ground 14 seconds later. Air Transat Flight 961, an Airbus A310, on 6 March 2005, catastrophic structural failure: the rudder detached from the aircraft with a loud bang and the aircraft began a dutch roll. The pilots regained enough lateral control ...
