The ATSB said Airservices ADS-B data showed the aircraft reached a maximum height of about 160ft above ground level while tracking in an arc to the left of the runway centreline before colliding with the DFO shopping centre.

The aircraft was configured with 10 degrees of flap and had its landing gear extended and locked when it crashed.

The engines were taken away from the accident site for further analysis with assistance from the engine manufacturer.

“That examination found that the cores of both engines were rotating and that there was no evidence of pre-impact failure of either engine’s internal components,” the ATSB said.
