00:28Start up the hydraulics.
00:31Did the brakes malfunction?
00:33No sign of fluid leak.
00:36The brakes didn't feel.
00:39When investigators listen to the cockpit voice recorder...
00:43Put the wipers on.
00:45...they discover a malfunction of an entirely different nature.
00:51What's happened to it?
00:55So, was this crash caused by a faulty windshield wiper?
01:03Nene, nene, nene.
01:07¡Oh, crap!
01:10Nene.
01:12Sssh.
01:25It's monsoon season in India.
01:29Air India Express Flight 1344 is on approach to Calicut International Airport.
01:38The pilot flying is Captain Deepak Sate.
01:41He's a highly experienced 59-year-old commercial pilot.
01:46Visibility is just above minimum, so he can make an attempt, okay?
01:51Check.
01:54Captain had flown in and out of Calicut a number of times.
01:57So he was very familiar with the airfield, the terrain around, and the weather conditions.
02:05Runway is wet. Expect turbulence, expect weather, all precautions.
02:12First officer Akilesh Kumar is age 32.
02:16He joined Air India Express three years ago and has almost 2,000 flying hours.
02:23He has less experience navigating through monsoons than the captain.
02:28That area experiences very heavy showers, along with reduced visibility
02:33and strong winds.
02:37In addition to the five crew, there are 184 Indian nationals on board.
02:44All are being repatriated amid the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak.
02:49It's one of more than 2,000 flights into India to date,
02:53bringing home thousands of workers stranded abroad
02:57when flights were grounded due to COVID restrictions.
03:01So the passengers on these flights were mostly blue-collar workers,
03:05people who had flown to Dubai to work in malls, in small restaurants.
03:13About 50 miles from the airport, Captain Satay begins his approach briefing.
03:19For a go-around, wind shear on approach, approach to stall,
03:24and recovery on go-around, as briefed in the first sector.
03:28Check.
03:31Approach briefing is basically one pilot communicating to the other
03:35what his plan of action is.
03:38Any doubts?
03:41No.
03:43Any questions?
03:47No questions.
03:52Today's flight from Dubai to Calicut takes just under four hours.
04:00Calicut Tower, Express India 1344, on ILS runway 28.
04:0812 miles from the airport.
04:10Any change in the visibility?
04:13The captain wants a weather update.
04:17Any change in the visibility?
04:19Express India 1344.
04:22Standby.
04:24Air India, Express 1344, latest visibility is 2,000 meters and light rain.
04:31Copy, Express India 1344.
04:352,000 meters visibility on a tricky airport with light rain.
04:41The pilots are basically a bit more anxious than a normal approach.
04:50Calicut's runway is built on a tabletop plateau.
04:54There are steep drop-offs at both ends.
04:58There is no margin of error.
05:00If you exceed the landing limit, you go straight down into a valley.
05:07The pilots are flying a Boeing 737-800,
05:11specially modified for difficult landings.
05:15It has modified spoilers and braking performance
05:18and allows it to stop faster than other models of the 737-800.
05:26Just two minutes from Calicut airport,
05:28the crew gets ready for landing.
05:32Put the wipers on.
05:38Lead in lights in sight.
05:40Yep.
05:46What's happened to it?
05:49Oh, crap.
05:51Wiper's gone.
05:53What a day for the wiper to go.
05:57With decreased visibility hindering their approach,
06:01the pilots must make a crucial decision.
06:07If they do not have the runway or any of the elements in sight,
06:12at that point, they have to take a decision
06:13to continue or to go around.
06:21Approaching minimums.
06:23500.
06:24Minimums.
06:29Let's go around.
06:35A half mile from the airport,
06:37Captain Sarté aborts the landing
06:39and decides to try it again.
06:50Express India 1344, request reason for go around.
06:56When pilots go missed on an approach,
06:58it's important information to share with air traffic control
07:01because that can help other pilots
07:02who are coming into the airport
07:04anticipate any hazards that may be there.
07:07Due to weather, Express India 1344, heavy rain.
07:12Uh, roger.
07:18While flight 1344 completes its go-around,
07:23a crew waiting to take off contacts the tower.
07:37The departing crew wants to switch runways.
07:42Runway 28 and Runway 10 are the same strip of runway,
07:46but they're in the opposite directions.
07:50Roger.
07:51Expect 1-0.
07:52Taxi via Charlie.
07:53Enter backtrack.
07:54Line up Runway 1-0.
07:56Line up Runway 1-0.
07:58Air India 425.
08:00Thank you, sir.
08:03Typically, departure aircraft want to taxi the least time
08:08and get airborne as soon as possible.
08:10Runway 1-0 is closest to the apron.
08:13To accommodate the departing aircraft,
08:16controllers change the active runway from 2-8 to 1-0.
08:22Express India 1344.
08:23Wind is now 270 degrees, 0-8 knots.
08:26Confirm you'd like to make an approach for Runway 1-0.
08:32Yeah, we'd like to try if you can give us an update
08:35on the visibility for Runway 1-0.
08:40Visibility is the same, sir, at 2,000 metres
08:42and we'll notify you of any improvement.
08:44And now wind is 260 degrees, 0-5 knots.
08:49Okay, set up for 1-0.
08:52Let's try.
09:02Localizer alive.
09:03Check.
09:08The localizer is part of the ILS, or instrument landing system,
09:13that provides lateral guidance to the runway's centre line.
09:24Cabin crew, landing stations.
09:28Flight 1344 is now only six miles from the runway.
09:35Shall we do it?
09:37Captain Sate tries the wipers again.
09:39Just a sec.
09:44What is this?
09:47The captain's wiper is working more slowly than it should.
09:51I guess this is the fastest it'll go.
09:53Okay, glide slope captured.
09:59The glide slope is also part of the instrument landing system
10:03and guides the plane on a three-degree slope to the runway threshold.
10:11Flaps 25.
10:14Flaps 25 selected.
10:16Moving.
10:19Calica Tower, Express India 1344.
10:23On ILS, runway 10.
10:26Express India 1344, roger.
10:29Light rain over the field, runway surface wet.
10:32Wind 250 degrees, 0-8 knots.
10:35Runway 10 cleared to land.
10:39Four miles from the runway,
10:41the crew receives clearance to land.
10:45Okay, runway in sight.
10:47Runway in sight, check.
10:51This time, the pilots can see the runway.
10:56Approaching minimums.
10:59500.
11:01As a pilot, when you're coming in for landing
11:04where there's weather and visibility just above minimums,
11:07you're keeping a sharper eye
11:08because things could change at a moment's notice.
11:13Flight 1344 crosses the runway threshold.
11:2130.
11:2320.
11:30Speedbrake up.
11:32The speedbrakes are deployed to help slow the plane.
11:38Auto-brake disarmed.
11:44But the plane isn't stopping fast enough.
11:49Oh, crap.
11:56The 737 falls off the end of the runway
12:03and breaks apart.
12:08Rescuers rush to save the 190 people on board,
12:13as every second could mean the difference
12:16between life and death.
12:22In driving rain and darkness,
12:25surviving passengers begin to emerge
12:28from the wreckage of Air India Express Flight 1344.
12:32The heavy rain benefits the rescue.
12:36It was very helpful, in fact,
12:38for dousing the post-crash fire.
12:40It ultimately helped us save lives.
12:46169 people survive the crash.
12:4959 walk away without injuries.
13:02But 21 of those on board are dead.
13:08Captain Deepak Satay.
13:10And 1st Officer Akhilesh Kumar are among them.
13:26Investigators from India's
13:27Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau,
13:30the AAIB, arrive on the scene.
13:34This was the first accident
13:36which AAIB would have been
13:38investigating on its own.
13:40So it was really an acid test
13:42for AAIB to prove its mettle.
13:46The first question investigators must answer.
13:49Did something break off from the airplane
13:52before the landing,
13:53making it impossible for the plane to stop?
14:01I've got the next batch downloaded.
14:06Looking at them now.
14:09This was the second wave of COVID,
14:11which was the most dangerous.
14:12So there was an embargo
14:14as to how many people could sit in a room
14:16and conduct a meeting.
14:19Investigators examine dozens of photos
14:22from the crash scene.
14:25Do you agree it's all here?
14:28They conclude all of the wreckage
14:31is contained within the crash site.
14:35The wreckage was not very spread out.
14:38It was concentrated over a radius
14:41of about 200 feet.
14:44Let's regroup in a bit.
14:48All the damage was caused
14:49when the plane overran the runway.
14:55So we wanted to come out
14:57with the probable reasons
14:59as to what has led the aircraft
15:02to exit the runway.
15:13Only slightly off-centre,
15:17but at least they were lined up
15:18with the runway properly.
15:20To better understand
15:22why the plane overran the runway,
15:24investigators try to determine
15:26where it initially touched down.
15:29So where do the marks start?
15:36On a dry runway,
15:38it is very, very easy
15:39to find the touchdown points
15:41because the tyres,
15:43they leave some rubber deposit
15:45on the point of touchdown.
15:50They work their way back
15:52along the runway.
16:18Beyond 5,000 feet,
16:20we were not able to locate
16:22any tyre marks.
16:24The tyre marks have been washed away
16:27due to heavy rain.
16:30Unable to determine
16:31where the plane touched down,
16:33investigators examine
16:34the runway itself.
16:37Did rubber deposits
16:38make the runway too slippery?
16:41They perform a test
16:43to determine if the runway's surface
16:45provided enough friction
16:47or grip for the plane
16:48to decelerate properly.
16:51Our experience shows
16:52that an aircraft of 737 class,
16:55it leaves a rubber deposit
16:57and over a period of time,
16:59it becomes difficult
17:00for the tyre to grip.
17:08Friction test results
17:09just came in.
17:11Coefficient of friction ranges
17:13from 0.63
17:17to 0.72.
17:22That's within standard.
17:31We were quite satisfied
17:34with the condition
17:35of the paved surface
17:37of Calicut Airport.
17:38There were no major
17:40rubber deposits.
17:43With the runway surface
17:44ruled out,
17:45investigators consider
17:47if the plane's tyres
17:48were too worn,
17:49causing it to hydroplane
17:51on the wet runway.
17:53The grooves on the tyres
17:55like on a car
17:56are channels for water
17:58to drain off.
17:58And if the tyre is bald,
18:01basically the grooves
18:01are worn out.
18:03That will cause
18:04the aircraft to slip.
18:08202 PSI
18:10right in the required
18:11pressure range.
18:14No skid burn
18:18or bald spots.
18:21Just like the others.
18:23If there was a case
18:24of hydroplaning,
18:26there would be
18:27white marks
18:28on the runway
18:29and that portion
18:30of the tyres
18:32would have been burned.
18:35And here we didn't find
18:37either of these.
18:40What about the brakes?
18:43Did the brakes malfunction,
18:46causing the plane
18:47to overrun the runway?
18:51Some corrosion.
18:55But nothing out of the ordinary.
18:59Let's check the hydraulics.
19:05We wanted to ascertain
19:07the serviceability
19:08of hydraulics
19:09because this is
19:11the braking system.
19:13Start up the hydraulics.
19:22No sign of fluid leak.
19:25The brakes didn't feel?
19:27No.
19:32I can say that
19:34there was
19:35no abnormality
19:36in the
19:37deceleration devices.
19:42Okay.
19:45Good.
19:49So,
19:51did the plane
19:52touch down
19:53within the touchdown zone?
19:57Investigators try
19:58to determine
19:59if the crew
20:00of Flight 1344
20:01gave themselves
20:02enough space
20:03to stop.
20:04Thank you.
20:13They found an image.
20:23from a closed-circuit camera
20:25located
20:26here.
20:30Looks like
20:30they're still
20:31about 15 feet
20:32above the runway
20:33and they're
20:33past the touchdown zone.
20:40We could see
20:41clearly
20:42the aircraft
20:42floating
20:43but unfortunately
20:45we couldn't see
20:45the exact
20:46touchdown point.
20:48So that means
20:49they flew
20:50well past
20:51the touchdown area
20:51before putting
20:52the plane down.
20:56That's right.
21:06Why would the pilots
21:08land so far
21:09past the touchdown zone
21:12and risk the lives
21:14of everyone
21:14on board?
21:24I have the ATC
21:26recordings.
21:29Let's hope
21:30we get some answers.
21:34Investigators
21:34turned to
21:35conversations
21:36between
21:36Air India Express
21:37Flight 1344
21:39and the controller
21:41to learn
21:42why the plane
21:43overflew
21:43the touchdown zone.
21:48Calicut Tower
21:49Express India
21:501344
21:51on ILS
21:52runway 28.
21:56Okay.
21:57Sounds like
21:57they initially
21:58planned to land
21:59on runway 28.
22:01So why did
22:01they land
22:02on 10 instead?
22:06Landing on runway 28
22:07the winds
22:08will be
22:08from
22:09your front.
22:11You'll be
22:11landing into
22:12the wind.
22:12That creates
22:13more lift.
22:17But three
22:18and a half
22:18minutes later
22:19the crew
22:20changes
22:21their plans.
22:22Tower Express
22:23India 1344
22:24going around.
22:27Roger.
22:33So they called
22:35a go-around?
22:41During monsoon season
22:42it is not
22:43very uncommon
22:43to see a go-around
22:45because of
22:47the low ceiling
22:48and showers
22:50of rain
22:50which suddenly
22:51reduce visibility.
22:55Express India 1344
22:57request a reason
22:58for go-around.
22:59Due to weather
23:00Express India 1344
23:02heavy rain.
23:07They probably
23:08couldn't see
23:08the runway.
23:09Sounds about
23:10right.
23:13The crew
23:14realized that
23:14the runway
23:15was not in sight
23:15so they took
23:16a call to
23:17go-around
23:17so that was
23:18absolutely
23:18in order.
23:21Calicut
23:21Air India

27:52The

28:12knots
28:12Flaps
28:1330
28:187,803
28:20feet
28:21So
28:22according
28:22to the
28:23information
28:23they had
28:23before
28:24accepting
28:24the

28:26they
28:26needed

28:27here
28:28to
28:29have

28:31the

28:38earlier
28:38in order
28:39to
28:39stop
28:40safely
28:41So
28:42why
28:42did
28:42the

28:43not
28:43give
28:43themselves

29:01the

29:23data
29:23gives
29:24us
29:24what
29:24happened
29:24but
29:26why
29:26it

29:30Hey

29:34the

30:03the
30:03wiper
30:03to
30:03go
30:12Maybe
30:13that
30:13explains
30:13why
30:13he
30:14was
30:14so
30:14worried
30:14about

30:17According

30:25alternative
30:25airport
30:26if
30:26the
30:27wipers
30:27malfunction
30:29So
30:30was
30:30this
30:30crash
30:31caused
30:31by
30:31a
30:31faulty
30:32windshield
30:32wiper?
30:37Unserviceability
30:37of a
30:38wiper
30:38in
30:39rainy
30:39conditions
30:39is
30:40a
30:40no-go
30:40item
30:42the
30:43crew
30:43pressed
30:43on
30:43to
30:44land
30:44at
30:44Calicut
30:47we
30:48couldn't
30:48fathom
30:48the
30:48reason
30:52Let's
30:52see if
30:52the
30:52wiper
30:53was
30:53working
30:53on
30:53the
30:53second
30:54approach
30:57Heading
30:57to
30:57course
30:59Should
30:59we
31:00do it?
31:01Just
31:02a sec
31:05What
31:06is
31:06this?
31:08I
31:09guess
31:09that's
31:09the fastest
31:10it'll
31:10go
31:13So
31:14the
31:14wiper
31:14is
31:15working
31:15just
31:15not
31:15as
31:15fast
31:16as
31:16it
31:16should
31:18Despite
31:19the
31:19slow
31:20wiper
31:20the
31:21pilots
31:21continue
31:22the
31:22approach
31:24Okay
31:25runway
31:25in
31:25sight
31:26Runway
31:27in
31:27sight
31:27check
31:34So
31:34less
31:35than a
31:35mile
31:36from
31:36the
31:36airport
31:36both
31:37pilots
31:38can
31:38see
31:38the
31:38runway
31:40The
31:41faulty
31:41wiper
31:42doesn't
31:42seem
31:43to have
31:43prevented
31:43the
31:44pilots
31:44from
31:44seeing
31:45the
31:45runway
31:46And
31:47so far
31:47they are
31:48still on
31:48the
31:48glide slope
31:53But it
31:54looks like
31:54they deviate
31:55below
31:56and then
31:57above it
32:00The
32:01approach
32:02became
32:02unstabilized
32:04and the
32:05actions on the
32:06part of the
32:06crew to
32:07continue with
32:07the approach
32:08really shocked us
32:12So if they
32:12were above the
32:13glide slope
32:14that means
32:15when they
32:15crossed the
32:15runway
32:16threshold
32:16they were
32:1740 feet
32:17too high
32:19The
32:19tailwind
32:20less than
32:20ideal
32:27If you
32:28fly off
32:28of the
32:29glide slope
32:29this close
32:30to the
32:30runway
32:30it is
32:31unsafe
32:32for you
32:32to continue
32:33yet this
32:33crew
32:34did
32:34continue
32:34their
32:35landing
32:38Did the
32:39pilots
32:39believe
32:40they could
32:40recover
32:41from an
32:41unstabilized
32:42approach
32:42and land
32:43safely
32:49Auto
32:50brake
32:50disarm
32:53Oh
32:54crap
33:05Looks like
33:06the
33:06captain
33:06increases
33:07engine
33:07power
33:08to
33:08stabilize

33:28just
33:29before

33:32which
33:33is
33:33probably
33:34what
33:34the

33:34was
33:35trying

33:46The

33:49the

33:57The

34:02Why
34:03wouldn't
34:03the

34:03just
34:05put
34:05the

34:10His

34:18track
34:18of where
34:18he was
34:18along

34:22So

34:41The
34:42captain
34:42didn't
34:43know
34:43where
34:43to
34:44put
34:44the
34:44plane
34:44down
34:45because
34:45of
34:45his
34:46slow
34:46wiper
34:46and
34:47the
34:47heavy
34:47rain
34:48which
34:48reduced
34:49his
34:49vision
34:52They
34:58still
34:58could
34:59have
34:59done
34:59a

35:02The

42:11different
42:11outcome
42:13The captain would have been able to pass control to the first officer
42:17Who had a fully working wiper to land the plane
42:22If they had just diverted to another airport, they'd all be alive today
42:37There were so many opportunities the crew had
42:40To conduct a missed approach during this landing
42:42But the crew took none of them
42:50In their final report
42:52Investigators recommend expanding simulator training
42:56For unstabilized approaches
42:58Stressing that the first officer should assertively assume control
43:02And initiate a go-around
43:04If the pilot flying fails to respond
43:14Simulator training with an emphasis on assertiveness would go a long way
43:17In allowing first officers to take all appropriate actions
43:21Up to and including taking control of the aircraft
43:24When the pilot in command does not respond appropriately
43:37This accident is avoidable
43:41We see the number of risks
43:43At every stage
43:45The crew had taken
43:46Which were unnecessary risks
43:49There was a human factor
43:52Which came into play
43:56They do not see the consequences of their actions
44:00That is a key point in any accident
44:02That is a big point in any accident
44:05The crew had takenoh
44:11And the crew did not stand H-Echa
44:15Which stands for sight
