Korean Air Airbus A330 Overshoots Runway Landing In The Philippines

[@spelldaddy5386]

Reports as explained by Juan Browne show they went around the first time due to turbulence destabilizing the approach. The second approach was also turbulent, and a last minute down draft pushed them into the runway at almost 1000 feet per minute, prompting the second go around. On climb out, the crew had an indication of a brake failure, declared an emergency, and held to run checklists. By the time they were ready for a third approach, the turbulence had subsided and they were much more stable. They made a soft touchdown which, combined with a contaminated runway, likely caused hydroplaning and they failed to slow down. It is also unclear if the spoilers were ever deployed (the post accident images show them stowed), which could further increase the required stopping distance

[@sjvillar2796]

… probably explains why local news is saying passengers of the flight were told to “brace”. Pilots already knew something was not correct, and, coupled with bad weather and contaminated runway, is a recipe for a disaster. Glad no one perished or was seriously injured.

[@ehsan83]

a captain who has brake issues decides to land in a turbulent weather on a contaminated runway? I'm sorry but his licence should be revoked !

[@spelldaddy5386]

@@ehsan83 as I explained, by the time they came around for the third approach (which was when they had the brake issues), the turbulence was past. They didn't have no brakes, just a partial failure. There are also techniques for landing on a contaminated runway which were not followed. It was not a negligent lack of judgement, which would be the only reason to revoke his license. Worse that will happen is he will get extra training in the simulator, but I doubt even that given that mostly it wasn't his fault

[@ehsan83]

@@spelldaddy5386 Asia is notorious for these bad weathers, turbulence and bad rainy days and there has been lots of accidents in the past because of that. what I don’t get is why these Asian airlines don’t become experts in analysing a situation and just divert and not take the risk ! Everything aside if spoilers weren’t armed and deployed the captain is in a bad shape

I once flew on Philippine Airlines to the island of Bohol, small airport and short runway with houses overlooking it! Perfect weather and perfect landing. In China I was in a 757 and due to bad weather it aborted the landing twice. I thought it was going to crash but the pilots landed the plane (with us inside it) safely the third time. Very scary. Glad to hear all the passengers on the KA flight got out safely. Thank goodness for modern safety procedures. Cebu is pronounced / se BOO / (stress on -bu)

[@marvingilyu]

As a former Korean Air employee, I was once sent to CEB to help out in the operations back in 2011. CEB is a good airport but like in MNL (used to be my base port) it also has the same weather conditions. Korean Air had been all about safety and the crew managed to lead everyone unharmed. Thus, this is actually a good indication that Korean Air is safe for travel and the airline is always all about safety in its operations for its employees and customers. I am proud that I was once part of this airline and I am truly happy that they are still the best regardless of the incidents or events that may happen

[@drewsarmiento]

I’m from Cebu City and a fan. I must say, the rain that day was indeed quite bad. It did paralyze operations in the airport since our second runway is still being built and not yet completed. However, just a few hours ago, it was reported that full capacity and 24/7 operations in the airport has resumed. It was temporarily just from sun up to sun down for a few days after the incident due to damaged runway lights. A Turkish Airlines A350 was actually stuck here for a few days due to being unable to take off because of the incident.

Thank god that the plane didnt overshoot the airport, just the runway, else there would have been more casualties

[@DreamlinerFan2016]

I think due to the amount of rain on the runway, it would have been labeled contaminated since water was present prior to the overrun. So thankful all the passengers on the Korean Air flight survived! 👍

[@Nobi36]

It tried to land twice i was tracking it while its holding

[@hewhohasnoidentity4377]

@@Nobi36 it has also been reported that passengers were told to take brace positions before the actual landing so they expected the possibility of a problem on the landing. The tracking data shows once they landed the speed didn't reduce until near the end of the runway. Too many variables to even attempt a speculation or criticism. Could have diverted after first attempt, but if it was a mechanical issue that was unknown at the time why would they divert. Could have gone around a third time, but how much fuel did they have and what the situation with the storm. It's possible that waiting longer would be more hazardous if the winds were going to be shifting due to the position of the storm.

I've flown into and out of Cebu and I must say the airport is very nice for an airport its size. There's some terrain on the main island, and we got fairly close to the hills on approach but the runway itself isn't aligned to any kind of high terrain, just sea.

[@magnustan841]

This reminds me of the Air France 358 accident. The A340 overshot the runway while landing in heavy rain, in Toronto. Apparently the aircraft came in high and hot, touched down nearly midway down the runway and the thrust reversers were activated late, hence the aircraft ran out of room to stop. I’m flying Korean Air in December, I hope this doesn’t reveal some hidden operational issues that impact passenger safety.

[@sho1715]

Same here. Wet slippery runway caused a slip (hydroplaning) of the aircraft same as the accident in Toronto.

I flew to Cebu this year and the runway of the airport is about 3.3 KM so it's long. When I came back to Manila, there were heavy rains and thunderstorms and we circled twice before actually landing. It was quite heavy and nauseous. It must've been so scary to be on that Korean Air flight that over shot the runway.

I’ve been flown to Cebu before, together with my relatives. Around 2011, the flight from Davao to Cebu was a stop over so my cousins that they’re done tour in Bohol will be together for Hong Kong-bound flight (by then-Air Phil Express). At that time, I was 11 years old and I was a 5th grade student. I was excuse or absent so I’ll have my 1st experience to go international. *EDIT:* I’m so bothered to see a comments of a news related to this incident because they were unrelated, like the “Kdrama ban” issue,the Philippine President’s fault, among others. And addition, there are some talked about nonsense, that they feel know about the aviation.

[@Tanzadog1]

Have taken many flights into and out of Cebu over the years. No issues. Though a major airport like Mactan International Airport, Lapu-Lapu, Cebu needs more than one runway.

[@flurianbacus8190]

The second runway under construction is about to be opened to traffic in few months. Mactan-Cebu International Airport is considered by many in aviation industry as one of the safest in the Philippines!

[@AkilezNewEngland]

There were 2 planes that were able to land safely that night before this plane crashed. The Philippines has Monsoon Rain there a lot of Local Flights during those heavy rains and the pilots are trained to land on wet runways. The Mactan Airport is pretty long because it was designed to accommodate PAF and US military aircrafts.

[@ianmelrenzgarcia992]

it may did a long landing that caused to overshot from the runway...but some says the 1st and 2nd attempt of landing were hard touchdowns that causes the breaking system incapable to function on the 3rd attempt. but, bad weather is a bad weather, that night was the worst, it causes poor visibility to Metro Cebu, how much more to the airport? I'm from Cebu City and this news is shocking since I never heard a news like this before. The Philippines is actually facing a lot of typhoons this year, and if not typhoons some parts of the country faces Low Pressure with constant raining

[@Fly_Cruising-Altitude]

As Korean, I was very shocked about Korean Air made aircraft written off accident... Korean Air was one of the safest airlines in the wolrd over two decades.. I think during second approach, the microburst prest an A330 to the ground and cause very hard landing. This hard landing cause problems of the landing gear and breaks. As a result the aircraft overran the runway...

The first time I heard of this incident was only a few hours after it happened. I was on my sofa, scrolling through KZbin when I saw a video by a news company about this incident. I found it as a shock how this aircraft was severely damaged, it just seemed impossible for something like this to happen in 2022. I can imagine how much stress the pilots were in, after two go--arounds and a holding pattern. It must have been an absolute horror to them when they ran off the end of the runway at 80 knots. But one question remains, why didn't the pilots divert? On FlightRadar24, I saw that there were some other flight's from Seoul Incheon to Cebu and one of them which I believe was a 737 diverted.
