A TSB investigation into a 2023 incident points to an issue at some airports across Canada
WINNIPEG — The Transportation Safety Board says an incident in Northwestern Ontario last year that left a passenger plane with significant damage was just one of numerous similar occurrences in Canada, and highlights an issue that needs to be addressed.
According to a report released Tuesday, the fuselage was also buckled, there was damage to the wings, ailerons, and flaps, and the main landing gear tires were blown, "with damage indicative of heavy skidding." "As this occurrence demonstrates, when a runway overrun occurs during landing, it is important that the aircraft have an adequate safety area beyond the end of the runway strip to reduce adverse consequences," the report states.
