Safety history
- September 3, 2021Accident
The flight crew of VH-YIS misinterpreted Darwin airport information during pre-flight briefing, which resulted in them believing that the threshold of runway 11 in Darwin was displaced. This subsequently resulted in the flight crew planning for and conducting the RWY 11 VOR-T displaced threshold approach instead of the RWY 11 VOR-Z standard approach. Full accident record
