What happened
Upon completing its landing at Fuzhou Airport, a three-engine airplane encountered difficulties decelerating on the runway. The aircraft was unable to come to a halt within the available runway length, leading to an excursion from the paved surface. During the overrun, the aircraft's nose landing gear separated from the airframe. The plane eventually came to a stop several dozen meters beyond the initial point of departure from the runway.
Despite the impact and the structural damage sustained, all 96 occupants were able to evacuate the aircraft without injury. The incident resulted in the aircraft being declared a total loss due to the extent of the damage.
Findings
- The primary factor in the excursion was the inability of the aircraft to stop within the remaining runway distance following touchdown.
