| Airbus A320 Plane Crash |
 |
Date: June 26, 1988
Time: 14:45
Location: Habsheim, France
Operator: Air France
Flight number: 296Q
Route: Basel - Basel
AC type: Airbus A320-111
Aboard: 136 (passengers: 130, crew:6)
Fatalities: 3 (passengers: 3, crew:0)
Summary: The plane was scheduled to perform a
series of fly-bys at an air show. The plane
was to descend to 100 ft. altitude with
landing gear and flaps extended. The
automatic go-around protection was inhibited
for the maneuver. During the maneuver, the
plane descended thru 100 ft. to an altitude
of 30 feet and hit trees at the end of the
runway. The aircraft was totally destroyed by
the successive impacts and violent fire which
followed. The pilot allowed the aircraft to
descend through 100 ft. at slow speed and
maximum angle of attack and was late in
applying go-around power. Unfamiliarity of
the crew with the landing field and lack of
planning for the flyby.
