What happened
Following the completion of its landing at Malanje Airport, the aircraft encountered significant mechanical issues involving the braking system. As the plane decelerated on the runway, a fire broke out, causing the vehicle to be consumed by flames.
Despite the intensity of the fire, all five crew members were able to evacuate the aircraft safely. There were no reported injuries during the emergency evacuation. However, the fire resulted in the complete destruction of the aircraft.
Findings
Investigations into the incident determined that the primary factor was the overheating of the brakes following the landing sequence. The specific underlying reason for the temperature increase in the braking components remains unidentified.
