Aircraft Overrun and Fire at Asmara-Yohannes IV Airport (ET-AAY)

Incident Overview and Outcome A four-engine aircraft experienced a runway overrun after landing at Asmara-Yohannes IV Airport. The aircraft was unable to stop within the remaining runway distance, resulting in the loss of its undercarriage. The aircraft subsequently came to rest in flames and was destroyed. All four occupants on board escaped the incident without injury. ## Official Findings The official investigation determined that the crew failed to use the thrust reverser systems after touchdown. This failure to deploy the thrust reversers was identified as the probable cause of the aircraft's inability to stop within the available runway distance.
