ACCIDENT RECONSTRUCTION TIMELINE
Step 3 of 4
T+00s
Touchdown: Amazon Cargo widebody touches down long on wet runway 09/27 under adverse low-visibility rain conditions.
T+28s
Deceleration Failure: Hydroplaning or braking degradation observed. Reverse thrusters deployed but insufficient to arrest rollout.
T+42s
Runway Excursion & Collision: Aircraft blows past threshold stopway at ~48 knots, striking the airport cleaners' van crossing perimeter service route.
T+58s
Final Arrest: Cargo jet comes to a stop in soft perimeter safety overrun turf. Emergency crews dispatched; 5 van fatalities confirmed.
EXCURSION & PHYSICS PARAMETERS
Adjustable Modeling
* Kinetic impact calculated using widebody operating empty weight (~90 t) + cargo payload and terminal velocity vector at service lane intersection.
VERIFIED AP EVIDENCE VS. FORENSIC ESTIMATES
| Parameter / Event Fact | Type | Status / Ground Truth |
