皇冠体育app

Jodel D117A, G-ASJZ

Summary:

皇冠体育app aircraft was landing at Old Buckenham Airfield on Runway 07 which has a LDA of 640 m and a 2% upslope. 皇冠体育app wind broadcast via the Air/Ground radio was 120/12 kt. During the landing flare the aircraft experienced a rapid drift which took it over the left hand edge of the runway. 皇冠体育app pilot attempted to go-around by applying full power and turning the aircraft into wind to bring it back over the runway. However, this did not prevent the aircraft from touching down on rough ground to the left of the runway. Both the pilot and passenger were uninjured and exited the aircraft unaided. 皇冠体育app pilot attributed the cause of the accident to a sudden gust and the poor climb capability of the Jodel at low speed and over an uphill slope preventing a successful go-around manoeuvre. 皇冠体育app outside air temperature was 25-27潞C which would have affected the climb performance. He also considered it was possible that he may have inadvertently applied some nose-up elevator in an attempt to clear the ground which could have stalled the aircraft whilst still airborne.
