Aircraft overrun following landing

No fatalities • Krasnosel'kup, Russia • Landing (descent or approach)

An aircraft failed to stop after touchdown, resulting in a runway excursion and significant damage to the airframe.

What happened

Following the completion of its landing sequence, the aircraft failed to decelerate sufficiently within the available runway length. The momentum of the plane caused it to overshoot the end of the paved surface, eventually coming to a halt approximately 300 metres beyond the runway threshold.

While the impact and subsequent excursion resulted in the airframe being damaged beyond repair, there were no casualties reported during the event. All five crew members on board managed to evacuate the aircraft safely and sustained zero injuries.

Findings

  • The primary factor in the accident was the inability to stop within the remaining runway distance after touchdown.

Probable cause

The aircraft failed to decelerate sufficiently during the landing roll, leading to a runway overrun.
