Incident Overview
A cargo aircraft operating a mail flight from Kuala Lumpur experienced a runway excursion during a night landing at Kuching Airport. The approach and landing were uneventful until after touchdown on a wet runway, which had been affected by recent heavy rainfall. Shortly after touching down, the aircraft deviated to the left and veered off the paved surface.
Sequence of Events
Upon leaving the runway, the aircraft contacted soft ground. The impact caused both main landing gears to collapse and the left engine to detach from the airframe. The aircraft continued sliding before coming to rest approximately 1,500 meters past the runway threshold.
Occupants and Damage
All four crew members on board evacuated the aircraft uninjured. The aircraft sustained substantial damage and was deemed beyond repair.
