What happened
An aircraft traveling from Ankara completed a routine flight before arriving at Siirt Airport. Upon touchdown on runway 24/06, the aircraft encountered a wet runway surface. Due to the lack of sufficient stopping distance, the aircraft failed to decelerate within the 1,660-metre runway limits. The aircraft subsequently overran the end of the runway, coming to a halt a short distance beyond the threshold.
Despite the impact and the extent of the damage, all 46 occupants were able to evacuate the aircraft without injury. The aircraft was determined to be a total loss, as it sustained damage beyond repair.
Findings
Investigations into the incident noted that the environmental conditions were not suitable for a safe landing. The braking action on the runway was reported as moderate to poor. It is suspected that aquaplaning played a role in the inability to maintain control and stop the aircraft during the landing roll.
