Aircraft excursion and fire at Sanaa Airport (7O-ADD)

What happened

Upon completing its landing at Sanaa Airport, a four-engine aircraft exited the runway and drifted off the paved surface. The excursion caused the plane to come to a stop, at which point the airframe ignited. Despite the intensity of the flames, the crew and all passengers were able to evacuate the aircraft without sustaining any injuries.

While emergency responders were able to suppress the fire relatively quickly, the structural damage sustained during the event was significant. The aircraft was subsequently declared a total loss and was deemed beyond repair.

Findings

• The aircraft veered off the runway during the landing phase.
• The incident resulted in zero fatalities and zero injuries.
• The primary cause of the aircraft's destruction was the post-excursion fire.
