FLC OF CL65 SLID PARTIALLY OFF TXWY AFTER UNEVENTFUL LNDG AT ICT.

Narrative

SEE PRINTED PAGE; IT IS WHAT I SENT INTO THE CHIEF PLT EXCEPT FOR THE LAST PARAGRAPH. I ADDED THIS FOR YOUR PURPOSE IN HOPES SOME CHANGES COULD BE MADE. I AM WRITING TO LET YOU KNOW OF THE EVENTS ON JAN/FRI/99; IN WICHITA; KS. I WAS THE FO WORKING FROM CINCINNATI TO WICHITA. ON THE DSCNT; CAPT BRIEFED ME ON HOW HE WOULD FLY THE APCH AND WE ALSO DISCUSSED THE POSSIBILITY OF ICE ON THE RWY AND TXWYS. WHEN I CHKED ON WITH WICHITA APCH I REQUESTED AN UPDATE ON THE CONDITION OF THE RWYS. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD CHK AND GET BACK TO US. WHEN THEY DID; WE WERE TOLD THAT THE LAST PIREP WAS FROM ABOUT 40 MINS PRIOR AND THAT SINCE THEN CHEMICAL DEICING HAD BEEN APPLIED TO THE RWY AND WE WERE GIVEN AN MU VALUE BTWN 40 AND 50. WE CONTINUED ON THE ILS TO RWY 19R AND CHKED ON WITH TWR. WE RECEIVED A RPT FROM THEM THAT WAS CONSISTENT WITH THE OTHER RPTS AND WERE CLRED TO LAND. THE APCH AND LNDG WERE NORMAL AND THE CONDITION OF THE RWY WAS MOSTLY GOOD WITH PATCHES OF ICE. ON THE LNDG ROLL THERE WAS NO LOSS OF DIRECTIONAL CTL AND BRAKING SEEMED TO BE GOOD. CAPT TURNED L OFF THE RWY ONTO TXWY D3 AT A SLOWER THAN NORMAL TAXI SPD. WE WERE MOSTLY THROUGH THE TURN WHEN WE STARTED SLIDING TO THE R. WE ENDED UP WITH THE R MAIN GEAR IN THE GRASS AND THE R WINGTIP TOUCHING THE GND. THE NOSEWHEEL WAS IN THE GRASS AND THE L MAIN GEAR WAS ON THE TXWY. THE CAPT SHUT THE ENGS DOWN AND RAN CHKLISTS WHILE I COMMUNICATED WITH THE TWR. EVERYONE STAYED IN THEIR SEATS UNTIL THE FIRE DEPT ARRIVED EXCEPT THE FLT ATTENDANT. SHE CHKED ON THE PAX AND OPENED THE DOOR TO SEE IF WE WERE OK AND TO RPT ON THE PAX. NO ONE WAS INJURED. WHEN THE FIRE DEPT ARRIVED THEY WERE ASKED TO WALK AROUND THE ACFT AND CHK FOR FUEL OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT MIGHT BE A HAZARD TO US. THEY RPTED THAT THEY DIDN'T THINK ANY FUEL WAS LEAKING BUT THAT THERE WAS A FAINT SMELL OF FUEL. WITH THAT INFO WE HAD THE PAX DISEMBARK THROUGH THE SVC DOOR DUE TO THE ATTITUDE OF THE ACFT. THEY THEN GOT ON THE BUS PROVIDED BY THE ARPT. AFTER SECURING THE AIRPLANE WE WENT WITH THE PAX TO THE GATE. THEN WE WENT ON TO OPS TO MAKE APPROPRIATE PHONE CALLS. AS I LOOK BACK ON THE EVENT I WISH THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE UP TO THE MIN INFO ON WHAT TXWYS THEY HAD DEICED. WE WERE GIVEN A RPT BUT IT DIDN'T SEEM TO BE VERY CURRENT OR ACCURATE. THE SYS OF NOTAMS TAKES TOO LONG AND WOULDN'T HAVE HELPED MUCH IN THIS INSTANCE. IF THE GND CREWS COULD RPT UP TO THE MIN INFO IN A SPECIFIC FORMAT TO THE TWR; THE INFO COULD THEN BE PASSED ON TO THE PLTS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE CONDITIONS WERE ANYTHING BUT NORMAL; HOWEVER BETTER COM COULD HAVE HELPED IN THIS SIT.
