Japan Air Commuter flight JL3760, an ATR 72-600, took off from Tanegashima Airport at 09:25 and landed at Kagoshima Airport at 09:49, seriously injuring one passenger (second lumbar vertebra compression fracture).
PROBABLE CAUSES
The JTSB concludes that the probable cause of this accident was that a seated passenger more likely suffered a lumbar compression fracture during landing due to the impact at touchdown. In addition, it is highly probable that the weather conditions during landing, the flight operations, and the aircraft were not contributing factors to the passenger’s injury.
