Descripción:The Boeing was on a cargo flight from Santiago, Chile (SCL) to Buenos Aires (EZE) carrying 30 tons of fish. The cargo was to be reloaded on a Boeing 747 heading for Madrid, Spain.
The airplane took off from Santiago at 11:50 (12:50 Argentine time). En route to Buenos Aires the captain told the copilot to perform the duties of pilot-in-command and carry out the landing from the left hand seat. The descent was flown without actioning the appropriate checklist. Tailwind caused the airplane to be high at each reporting point. The resulting descent was fast. Near the Outer Marker of runway 11 - at 7 nm from the runway - the airplane should already have been configured for the final approach. The crew quickly extended flaps to 14, 25 and 40 degrees. The flaps were then selected to 50 degrees and the captain reported on finals. The airplane then developed a nose down attitude. From an altitude of 900-1000 m there was not much time to correct. The Boeing 707 struck the ground hard about 750 m short of runway 11, broke up and caught fire.
Probable Cause:
CAUSAS PROBABLES: "Impacto de la aeronave contra el terreno próximo a la cabecera de pista, provocando la destrucción de la misma y el fallecimiento de dos de sus ocho tripulantes, debido al erróneo accionamiento de los aerofrenos a posición adentro simultáneamente con los flaps a posición todo extendido durante el tramo de final corta para aterrizaje.
Fueron factores contribuyentes:
1) Una errónea planificación en el descenso y aproximación, que dio lugar a un incorrecto desarrollo de esas maniobras.
2) Falta de aprovechamiento de la experiencia de un hecho similar anterior calificable como situación riesgosa
3) Insuficiente prevención de la posible situación crÃtica, en la documentación operativa de la aeronave.
4) Falta de realización del "Briefing" previo a la aproximación y descenso.
5) No utilización de la LCP durante toda la maniobra de aproximación.
6) Insuficiente adiestramiento en CRM"
