2004-07-29 | The
Twin Otter departed Port Moresby (Jacksons International Airport POM/AYPY)
on its weekly cargo flight to Ononge Airport (ONB), carrying store
goods. Ononge airstrip is located at an elevation of 1792 meters in the
rugged Goilala region. It has a single 500-metre runway 16/34 of which,
due to the 7% slope, only the runway 34 direction can be used for
approach. The airplane reportedly approached Ononge shortly after 10:00.
Because of a cloud cover the approach had to be abandoned. The pilot
probably decided to head for Yongai airport, located 27 km to the East
of Ononge. Then in a mountain valley at an elevation of 2,286 meters
above sea level the aircraft collided with trees and crashed. The
wreckage was found a day later and only the loadmaster had survived the
crash. The two pilots were killed. Source: http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20040729-0 |
