IranAir off runway at ARN

[stansdead]

I am led to believe that the runway condition was, frankly, misreported to the Wizzair guys.

And you know what? It doesn't surprise me at all that the guys were given duff info.

The place (KBP) can be a nightmare and needs to be approached with extreme caution in anything other than a summer CAVOK afternoon. Even then, you should be careful.

There was an Il-76 (Yas Air, EP-GOM) which did a 180 degree pirouette on the runway in Kiev on 09JAN as well.

You can add Norwegian at BDU to that list as well.

I heard a whisper the other day that an aircraft left the taxiway at Glasgow some time during the recent bad weather. It was rumoured to belong to a large airline based in a low-lying country at the south end of the North Sea.

Left engine stall/failure at low speed followed by a quick exit to the left. FOD? Bird?

Went to look at the aircraft last night at ARN.
The engine looks perfect, no fan damage, just a spatter of molten metal on the LP turbine blades.
Thats the sort of engine failure I like! Takes 10 seconds to declare an engine change.

The Swedish Havarikommission (SAIB) released their final report concluding the probable causes of the incident were:

Operational

- Deficiencies in the certification process for large aircraft with wing-mounted engines with regard to requirements for yaw stability in the event of sudden loss of engine power in the speed range below VMCG.

Ooops!

Does that mean, beside these lovely but over 40 years old planes, ALL LARGE AIRCRAFTS WITH WING-MOUNTED engines are affected?

If you boys and girls would look around a bit you'll find quite a useful thread about this on R&N with a full report too.

Yes BOAC.

But the first line of the search function directed me into here....
