Why did they not take 26L? That one is not shortened an offers a bit more safety at 3500m of length.

And of course, the question is, did they calculate their landing distance and stick to their landing performance (speeds, brake setting etc)?

[gearlever]

Maybe and I say maybe, they were not aware of the shortening....

Temporary charts for LROP valid from 22-JUN-2017 UFN show 26R closed beyond taxiway W with 2237m available.

It is on the ATIS, it is on the temporary chart, it has been going on a while. And usually you get asked by the controller as well if you can accept the shortened distance.

Is there an AAIB in Turkey?
Can't find it on the web.

[fox niner]

That is because Turkey does not publish reports. Never.

[Rwy in Sight]

Fortunately this will be handled by Romanian AAIB.
