A Boeing 737-200, owned and operated by Chanchangi Airlines Ltd., operated a series of flights commencing from Lagos between 14:38 h and 18:27 h as NCH198 and landed in Abuja without any incident.
The same aircraft then operated as NCH334 to Kaduna at 20:18 h with a total of 45 persons on board inclusive of nine crew members with fuel endurance of 2 hours 40 minutes. The flight was normal but became unstable during approach to landing on runway 05. The aircraft descended in stormy weather, struck and uprooted the Non Directional Beacon (NDB) antenna 50 ft (15 m) high, some approach lights, and landed 240 meters short of the runway damaging three tyres: one on the nose wheel and one each on the main landing gear. The aircraft continued its movement into the runway, taxied to the ramp and parked. The three tyres were immediately replaced. This incident occurred at 20:41 h at night time. None of the flight crew and passengers sustained any injury.
The investigation identified the following:
Causal factor
Loss of speed, altitude and situational awareness due to poor instruments’ scanning on short finals Runway 05.
Contributory factor
1. The airplane was flown at a high descent rate (825 fpm) when the aircraft was just 225 ft above runway during approach
2. Possible increase in crew workload due to thunderstorm activities in the vicinity of the airport.
