Accident Overview
The accident occurred during a positioning flight originating from Veracruz. After touchdown on runway 13/31, the flight crew encountered difficulty stopping the aircraft within the remaining runway distance. The aircraft overran the runway end and crashed, resulting in its destruction. Both pilots were killed.
Investigation Findings
Investigators determined that the crew had adopted a wrong approach configuration, which led to the aircraft being too high on approach. As a result, the crew landed too far down the runway and failed to initiate a go-around procedure. After touchdown, the landing distance available was insufficient to bring the aircraft to a stop before the runway ended.
Runway Characteristics
Runway 13/31 has a length of 1,300 meters. The aircraft touched down beyond the optimal landing point, reducing the distance available for deceleration.
Aftermath
The aircraft was destroyed in the crash. Both pilots sustained fatal injuries.
