The aircraft was on a VOR approach to Southampton Airport in icing conditions when, as the first stage of flap was selected, the amber FLAP POWER caution illuminated on the Caution and Warning Panel (CWP) and the flaps remained up. The crew calculated that the runway at Southampton Airport was not long enough for a flap 0° approach in icing conditions and decided to carry out an ILS approach to Runway 08 at Bournemouth Airport. The weather conditions reported at Bournemouth Airport were wind from 050° at 10 kt, 10 km visibility, broken cloud at 1,500 ft aal, and a temperature of 1°C.
Seven miles from touchdown on the final approach to Bournemouth Airport, the aircraft’s landing gear was down, its speed was stabilised at a Vref of 150 kt IAS and its attitude was 5° nose-up. At 1,000 ft aal, the commander disconnected the autopilot and began to fly manually, in accordance with the Emergency Check List (ECL). When the aircraft was within approximately 2 nm of the runway, the co-pilot began to call out the aircraft’s pitch attitude. As the aircraft approached the
touchdown point, the commander perceived a high rate of descent and increased the pitch attitude to reduce it.
The co-pilot called “PITCH 8°, DON’T PITCH ANY MORE” but, as the aircraft touched down, a Master Warning was triggered and the crew observed the TOUCHED RUNWAY caption illuminate on the CWP. The aircraft vacated the runway and taxied to a parking stand, where the pilots carried out a normal shutdown. An inspection of the aft lower fuselage of the aircraft revealed that the frangible touch runway detection switch was broken.
