Avianca Express flight 4819, an ATR 72-600, suffered a partial runway excursion during landing on runway 13L at Bogotá-Eldorado Airport (SKBO).
The crew controlled the aircraft and managed to steer it back on the runway axis.
Subsequently, the aircraft continued taxiing and departed along taxiway A5 towards position F5, where it stopped.
No injuries were reported. The aircraft sustained minor damage to the landing gear due to the partial excursion, and caused damage to two runway edge lights.
The serious incident occurred at 17:27, in daylight, adverse weather conditions with heavy precipitation, reduced visibility and a wet runway.
Probable Cause:
Execution of a landing after an unstabilized approach, with out-of-bounds parameters, which occurred during the last leg of the approach (300 feet AGL), which were not adequately resolved by the crew, causing the aircraft to skid after touchdown, and partial excursion along the right margin of the runway.
Contributing Factors:
- Increased approach speed up to Vapp+19 knots, and increased descent rate up to -1166 ft/min at 300 ft AGL.
- Deteriorated weather conditions during approach and landing, related to heavy precipitation and reduced visibility.
- Wet runway condition on the airfield.
- Operation of the airfield under adverse weather conditions of heavy precipitation and wind shear that after the serious incident became hazardous for takeoff and landing maneuvers.
- Crew overconfidence in deciding to continue the approach and landing maneuver under adverse weather conditions that were constantly warned in the cockpit, reported by other aircraft and ATC.
