N777as Owner
The crew made a positioning flight between Riyadh Airport (Saudi Arabia) and the Paris-Le Bourget. The flight was cleared for the LOC A runway 25 approach. This approach has a 26° offset from the runway axis.During the turn to align the aircraft with the runway centreline, the aircraft overshot the runway. The Pilot Flying (PF) returned to the runway centreline while at a low height. The PF then decided to stop the approach and increase the thrust of the engines.
The right main landing gear touched down before the aircraft began to climb. The crew returned to land on runway 07.
During an inspection of the aircraft after the flight, damage was noted on the right wing and on the right horizontal stabilizer. Traces of friction ware also observed on the runway.
Causes of the serious incident:
The serious incident was due to the late interruption of an unstabilized approach.
Contributed to the serious incident:
- a lack of stabilization objectives, both in the conduct of the flight by the crew and in the operator's operating procedures;
- poor recent experience of PF on a particular and little practiced approach;
- a crew without hierarchy, not very conducive to effective CRM;
- a company with no safety management system and practices that are not conducive to a safety culture.

The crew were cleared for a LOC A approach to runway 25. This approach is offset by 26° with respect to the runway centreline.
During the turn to align with the runway centreline, the aeroplane overshot it. The PF first decided to continue the approach before deciding to abort it at a very low height. The right main landing gear touched the runway along with the tip of the right wing and the tip of the right horizontal tail.
The serious incident was due to the late aborting of a non-stabilized approach.
Following this serious incident, the airport operator set up a PAPI and is studying the setting up of a second one to assist with following the glideslope.
