Incident Overview
A twin-engine aircraft experienced a runway excursion after landing too far down the runway during an approach with a wrong configuration. The runway, designated 23, has a length of 1,600 meters. Following touchdown, the flight crew determined that the remaining landing distance was insufficient and decided to veer off the paved surface. The aircraft rolled onto a grassy area and came to rest. All 12 occupants evacuated safely. The aircraft sustained damage beyond repair.
Approach and Landing
The aircraft approached the runway with a configuration that did not meet the required standards. As a result, the aircraft was too high on the glide path during the final approach. This led to a landing that occurred well beyond the intended touchdown point. The runway surface was wet at the time, which contributed to poor braking action after touchdown.
Post-Landing Actions
Upon realizing that the available landing distance was inadequate to stop on the runway, the crew deliberately steered the aircraft off the paved surface. The aircraft continued onto the grassy area adjacent to the runway, where it eventually came to a stop. Emergency services responded, and all occupants exited the aircraft without injury.
Damage Assessment
The aircraft was examined after the incident and determined to be damaged beyond economic repair. The specific components affected were not detailed in the source. The aircraft was unable to be returned to service.
Probable Cause (Official Findings)
The investigation determined that the aircraft landed too far down the runway after the crew continued the approach too high on the glide. The braking action was considered poor because the runway surface was wet, which was identified as a contributing factor.
