An SJL Aeronáutica Embraer 135, operating for Trans Air Cargo Services, sustained damage in a runway overrun after landing on runway 07 at Lubumbashi International Airport (FBM/FZQA), DRC.
The occupants were not injured.
During the approach to FBM, the controller reported that the runway was wet.
At 04:51 UTC the flight was cleared to land on runway 07, with the wind being reported as 250 degrees at 9 knots.
The aircraft touched down 500 m past the threshold of the 3200 m long asphalt runway. Brakes, spoilers and reverse thrust failed to activate. Due to a lack of deceleration the aircraft overran the runway end, coming to a full stop in the grass 200 meters past the end of the runway.
Probable Cause
- Too long landing roll
Contributing Factors
1. Light rain
2. Late reaction by the Captain
3. Non-deployment of reversers, spoilers, and brake failure
4. Wet runway
