I know the ATR72 very well - and 5700' wet runway with a tailwind is still not an issue!! Maybe there's more to this such as tech problems too??
Exactly..
what were the winds like ?
Low Altitude wind shear may be ... leading to correction and subsequent hydroplanning.. ??
I am currently unable to think of an tech failure that will actually make that bird skid of the runway..
1. I only hope the crew come out clean from it.. (who ever they may be)
2. I only hope the bird can go back up there again..
Bonne Landings
