Approach and Initial Touchdown
The first officer, who had accumulated 950 hours of flight experience, was controlling the airplane during the approach and initial touchdown on runway 4. Runway 4 is an asphalt runway measuring 12,010 feet in length and 150 feet in width.
Right Wing Drag
While the airplane was on a heading of 050 degrees and in a 19-degree right wingtip low bank angle, the right wing dragged the runway.
Corrective Actions and Bounce
A left correction was initiated, causing the airplane to roll to a left wing low angle of 13 degrees and overshoot the runway centerline to the left. During a subsequent correction back to the right, the airplane bounced "hard" as the main landing gear touched down on the runway 2,150 feet beyond the point where the right wing had dragged the ground.
Captain Takes Over
The captain, who had 5,000 hours of flight experience, then took over the controls and completed a "safe" landing.
Wind Conditions
The wind at the time of the accident was from 140 degrees at 07 knots.
