IAC report states causes of Avia Traffic 737 run-out
Inadequate local Kyrgyz regulations and pilot error are named as the main causes for the Avia Traffic Boeing 737 accident Nov 22, 2015, at Osh International in Kyrgyzstan. The aircraft ran out of runway while landing. Ten of the 160 passengers and crew on board were injured. According to the report by Russia’s Interstate Aviation Committee, weather conditions at Osh on the day of the run-out were below minimum conditions for a Category 1 instrument approach to the runway. The crew made the go-around decision at a height of 45 meters, despite being beneath the required 60 meters. The height was enough to perform the manoeuvre safely, but the pilots mishandled the procedure. “The captain’s mistake, pushing forward on the yoke while the aircraft was pitching up, did not allow stopping the descent,” the agency stated. <br/>
