| Executive Summary: | On Friday 11 April, 1997 at 01.54 local time an aircraft incident took place at Joensuu airport in which a Douglas DC-9-83 (MD-83) aircraft, registered TC-INC, owned by lrish Aerospace Finance Ltd. and operated by Turkish lntersun Sunways Havacilik A.S. overran the runway. There were 167 passengers and six crewmembers on board. The flight number was SWW 1022. Probable cause - The knowledge and skills of the cockpit crew were insufficient for winter operations. The landing technique used by the captain especially the use of wheelbrakes and engine thrust reversers was against the procedures described in the Flight Crew Operations Manual (FCOM). The first officer handled the check list work and monitoring duties poorly - The flight operations management of lntersun Sunways A.S. failed to ensure the competence of the cockpit crews - The DGCA, Turkey failed to properly oversee the operations of Intersun Sunways A.S. as a new start-up charter operator. |
