Incident Overview
During the final approach to Nyagan Airport, the flight crew recognized that the aircraft was not properly aligned with the runway but elected to continue the landing. As the aircraft touched down, the right wing struck the runway surface. Following the wing strike, the aircraft entered a series of left and right rolls that continued for approximately 800 metres. The aircraft subsequently veered off the runway and came to rest in a ravine.
Occupant Injuries
All 15 occupants aboard the aircraft sustained injuries, with six of them suffering serious injuries.
Probable Cause
According to the official investigation findings, the probable cause of the accident was that the aircraft was unstable during final approach for unknown reasons, and the crew failed to initiate a go-around procedure while the landing manoeuvre was obviously missed.
