Due to the increased number of events, the Airports Council International has done some interesting work/research on runway excursions. Some information can be found on their website: Airports Council International__

This one is N840HK. I still fail to comprehend why everyone is jumping on the runway overrun bandwagon when this particular incident was clearly NOT an overrun but an excursion.

Excursion would be accurate. Apparantly a thunderstorm at the time with winds gusting over 20 knots from a crosswind direction.

The picture with the "7HK" clearly shows the tail in the air with firemen on a ladder. The one before shows the aiplane with the tail on the ground. The gear collapsed. They reused old photos from the previous incident. Unless the firemen jacked the airplane up so they could use a ladder to get into it. Not likely.

These are pictures of two seperate incidents at YOW. The clue is in the 3rd picture (of N847HK) which is minus the front u/c whereas the latest incident (N840HK) is still with nosewheel attached.

Apparently after the previous two incidents, the company is restricted to only using the long runway 14-32. Therefore not allowed to use 07-25. Unfortunately when the heavy rain came, the wind peaked at 2713G25

This actually makes it a total of 3 runway overruns @ YOW. All of them were non-TR equipped.
Cheers, D.L.
