Runway excursion, Dornier 228-212, PH-CGN, Eindhoven Airport
Status :
Closed
During the practice of an intermediate full stop landing (stop and go) with full flaps configuration, the crew members lost control over the aircraft. The aircraft veered off to the right side of the runway, where it rotated over the right. The aircraft came to a stop, partly off the runway. The condition of blocked wheels was the main factor that limited to easily maintain, or regain, directional control. As no technical evidence was found of any anomaly in the brake system, the wheels blocked as a result of braking action by the pilot. The left wingtip, the left main landing gear and both main wheel tires were damaged. The two crew members were unharmed.
