Narrative:A Boeing 747-3B3 was involved in a runway excursion accident at Kerman International Airport (KER), Iran.
During take off from runway 34 the pilot noticed that the airplane had a tendency to the right. He attempted to maintain directional control using rudder input. He then decided to abort the takeoff. The airplane continued off the runway and came to rest. An emergency evacuation was performed during which 13 passengers were injured.
Main cause (translated from Persian):
- Important pilot error deciding to cancel flight after V1 speed regardless of remaining runway
- Pilot error for failing to comply with operating standards when rejecting takeoff and poor CRM (during takeoff)
