ZK-PBF runway excursion 14/7/07
The ATSB has released its final report into the low speed RTO on 14 July 2007 of ZK-PBF (a B738): http://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/.../AO2007023.pdf
In essence, the PIC hit the TOGA switch before the a/c had been lined up on 16R and before the engines had achieved stabilised and symmetrical thrust settings. As a result the a/c ended up on runway 07 on a heading of 184 degrees following a partial excursion across the grass near the intersection of 16R and 07, and a nosewheel full skid. Induction and recurrent training has been modified as a result of this incident.

It hasn't appeared on Google maps yet (not sure about Google Earth...do they use the same images?) but the skid marks off to the side are still clearly visible from this incident.

I guess it reminds us all that Boeing state to ensure equal spool up to prevent directional control problems for a reason.
One thing that would help with runway excursion problems would be to stop selling off all the land around the airports (Especially our secondary airports) Last edited by Owen H; 2nd April 2009 at 02:28 PM. |
