Correction Overview
The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) published a correction to its Bulletin No 10/2010 concerning an event involving a Boeing 737-800, registration EI-DHD, at Glasgow Prestwick Airport on 23 December 2009. The correction appears in AAIB Bulletin 12/2010 under file reference EW/G2009/12/14.
Original Text Error
In the History of the flight section of the original report, the following sentence appeared: "The commander recalled cancelling the autobrake at about 100 kt and reverse thrust at 60 kt, before allowing the aircraft to roll to the end of the runway prior to vacating."
Corrected Text
The AAIB noted that the word "selecting" was inadvertently omitted. The corrected sentence reads: "The commander recalled cancelling the autobrake at about 100 kt and selecting reverse thrust at 60 kt, before allowing the aircraft to roll to the end of the runway prior to vacating."
Source of Information
The information in the original bulletin was derived from the airfield operator’s investigation report and further enquiries by the AAIB. The correction ensures the accurate representation of the commander's recollection of events during the landing roll.
Bulletin Details
The AAIB periodically issues bulletins detailing investigation findings. This correction clarifies the sequence of actions, specifically that reverse thrust was selected at 60 knots, rather than simply cancelled as previously stated.
