SpiceJet flight SG3722 suffered a runway excursion after landing at Surat, India.
Probable Cause of the Incident
The runway excursion occurred because of combination of:
- Due to the late disconnection of Auto-Pilot by PF, he could not adapt to the rapidly deteriorating environmental condition due to heavy rain.
- Reduced visual cues due to heavy rain impacting depth perception and ascertaining of actual touchdown position. PIC did not realise the runway exhausted due to the extended flare.
- Not going around in view of deteriorating weather during approach; prior to landing or after touchdown.
- Late touchdown of the aircraft on the runway.
- Approach with lower flaps & higher approach speed added to the extended flare and higher landing distance.
