Accident Details
During the approach and landing, the aircraft was in a nose-down attitude, causing the nose gear to contact the runway first. Upon impact, the nose gear collapsed, and the fuselage broke into two sections.
Incident Sequence
Both sections slid for several dozen meters along the runway. The rear part remained relatively intact, while the forward section came to rest and burst into flames.
Evacuation and Casualties
A total of 42 people were evacuated from the aircraft. Among them, 24 sustained injuries. The captain, trapped in the cockpit, was killed.
Probable Cause
The accident was caused by the crew completing the approach and landing in a nose-down attitude, resulting in the nose gear contacting the runway first and collapsing.
