An Airbus A320 overran the runway while landing in rain, and crashed into a warehouse. All 187 people on board, and 12 people on the ground, were killed. Sriwijaya Air Flight 62: 2008 Sultan Thaha Airport, Jambi, Indonesia The Boeing 737-200 overran the runway due to a hydraulics malfunction and crashed into a house. There were no fatalities ...
Jeju Air initially said that the crashed aircraft was not involved in any prior incident, but data from the Korea Airports Corporation showed that in February 2021, the aircraft was damaged when its tail struck the runway during takeoff from Gimpo International Airport in Seoul, for which Jeju Air was fined 2.2 billion won ($1.5 million) by the ...
The aircraft touched down on the runway at a speed of 150 knots (280 km/h; 170 mph) and came to rest upside down after overrunning the runway. [2] Sixty-three people died during the accident and seven more in hospitals later. [2] Among the passengers were 14 children, all of whom survived the accident. [3]
[citation needed] The NTSB determined that the probable cause was the pilots' failure to use available reverse thrust promptly to safely decelerate or stop after landing, which resulted in a runway overrun. This failure occurred because the pilots' first experience and lack of familiarity with the airplane's autobrake system distracted them ...
To avoid striking the approach lighting system, they veered the DC-10 off Runway 04R using the aircraft's rudder. The aircraft came to a rest in shallow water 650 ft (200 m) from Runway 04R. [5] [6] Investigators discovered that the captain was relying on the aircraft's autothrottle, believing that it would automatically decrease turbine power. [7]
[5] [12] [13] Initial causes of the investigation focused on a possible failure of the thrust reverser and the pilot's request to change runways. [ 14 ] The right hand thrust reverser was inoperative at the time of takeoff, as allowed per the master minimum equipment list , which made the thrust reversers unavailable after the aircraft landed.
The Government Information Agency (GINA) Guyana reported the probable cause to be pilot error, stating: "The cause of the accident was the aircraft touching down far beyond the touchdown zone due to the captain maintaining excess power during the flare and not using the airplane's full deceleration capacity, resulting in the aircraft over ...
Forty-five seconds after the overrun the first fire engine arrived at the scene, the second five seconds after that. By 1 minute and 45 seconds after overrun, most of the fuselage was on fire. The tail collapsed at 3 minutes and 30 seconds after the overrun, and at 5 minutes and 45 seconds after the overrun the inside left engine stopped running.
