What happened
During an approach following a routine departure from Lima, the aircraft entered the final stages of landing in an unstabilized state. As the flight crew attempted to land on runway 07, the aircraft made a heavy touchdown. This initial impact was followed by three distinct bounces on the runway surface. During the period when the crew was retracting the landing gear, the aircraft lost stability and transitioned into a ground slide. The aircraft traveled approximately 600 metres along the runway on its belly before the motion ceased.
Findings
- The aircraft was in an unstabilized approach prior to touchdown.
- The sequence of events was initiated by a heavy landing on runway 07.
- The aircraft sustained damage beyond repair.
- There were zero fatalities and zero injuries among the nine people on board.
