Goran_M Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 I'd be surprised if he wasn't reprimanded for that idiotic stunt.How many people have to die before moronic pilots like this get the message? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukasz Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 "On April 1, 1997, a U.S. Air Force C-130 cargo plane overshot the runway at Toncontín and rolled 200 yards before bursting into flames on a major boulevard, killing three people aboard.On May 30, 2008, an Airbus A320 operated by Grupo TACA, Flight 390, overran the runway in approach to Tegucigalpa Airport. The accident was partly blamed on bad weather conditions. Five people died in the incident. According to black box recordings and a report from the NTSB, the cause of the accident was a human error by the pilot, who died in the crash, who landed 900 meters (0.5 miles) beyond the landing marks and in the wrong direction (the tower had ordered the opposite way)."Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toncont%C3%ADn_International_AirportCorrect procedure for that runway:http://www.costaricaaviation.com/charts/mhtg/VORDME_RWY_01.PDFAirport diagram:http://www.costaricaaviation.com/charts/mhtg/MHTG_ARPT_DIA.PDFThis guy is an accident awaiting to happen :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
