The aircraft, with a crew of 9 and 167 passengers on board, was on an international charter from Toronto, Canada, to Acapulco, Mexico. Following a visual approach to runway 28 at Acapulco, a tailstrike occurred on landing. There were no injuries and only minor damage occurred to the aircraft.
The Board determined that the flight crew had not retracted the speed brakes prior to landing, which resulted in a tailstrike. Contributing to the occurrence were actions which deviated from company standard operating procedures and the aircraft flight manual, ineffective crew resource management, and incomplete check-list procedures.
