China Southern Airlines flight CZ3367 from Guangzhou to Wuhan in China, was on an NDB/DME approach (minimum 1200 meters visibility required, MDA 430 feet) to Wuhan's runway 04 in a visibility of 1500 meters occasionally reduced to 1200 meters in light rain and light fog and cloud ceiling 690 feet.
The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, had been configured for landing before reaching the final approach fix and was maintaining 1800 feet when the aircraft reached the final approach fix at the outer marker 5.1nm before the runway threshold. The aircraft descended with the captain being pilot flying, when descending through 1000 feet the captain disengaged the autopilot. When the aircraft reached 430 feet there was no visual contact with the runway, the first officer called for level flight, reset the flight director and selected the go-around altitude into the master control panel. Still no approach lights were seen and the aircraft appeared low.
A ground proximity warning "too low" activated, the first officer called for a go-around without response from the captain, another GPWS "too low" sounded, this time the captain called "go-around" and initiated the go-around, unusual sounds, however, occurred while the aircraft was still rotating up and it became clear the aircraft had hit obstacles, but the aircraft climbed out to safety. The crew subsequently decided to divert to Hefei for a landing which luckily was without further incident.
The aircraft suffered damage including dents and perforations to its left main landing gear and actuator, a door was bent out of shape, a landing gear tyre was cut and also, three of four fixed screws on the bottom front of the aircraft were missing.
The antennas of the non-directional beacons at Wuhan airport were also damaged.
