Accident Details
An aircraft overran the runway after landing too far down the runway at Arequipa-Alfredo Rodríguez Ballón Airport. Unable to stop within the remaining distance, it continued beyond the paved surface, rolling for approximately 160 meters before losing its undercarriage. The aircraft came to rest with the fuselage broken in two.
All 45 occupants were evacuated, with 11 passengers sustaining injuries. The aircraft sustained substantial damage and was subsequently written off.
Probable Cause
The official investigation determined that the accident was caused by a wrong approach configuration on the part of the crew, who continued the landing above the glide path, resulting in touchdown too far down the runway. Additionally, the crew failed to initiate a go-around procedure.
