http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rn-iI7wX-YI didn't even know there was video for this! I was just checking on the progress of the investigation......Anyone know?EDIT Sorry just had to change the video. The first one was a 'ripped' version (a reupload).Anyway this is the original in its entirety.EDIT again: Here is a link to give an insight to how it happened. Looks as though the Autoland was confused, and or a jet's wake that was still at the end of the runway was to blame.http://avherald.com/h?article=445873f3/0000&opt=0

Thanks for the link!!

There is a very good explanation of the events on this thread from The Aviation Herald:http://avherald.com/h?article=445873f3&opt=0From that page:"When the Boeing 777-300 descended through 30 feet AGL, the aircraft began to roll left, the left main gear touched down first about 490 meters/1610 feet past the threshold, the autopilot changed into roll out mode. The aircraft rolled towards the left edge of the runway and crossed the runway edge at about taxiway B4 1100 meters/3610 feet down the runway. At this point rudder inputs by the crew prompted the autopilot to disengage. The aircraft rolled in a slight right turn over grass for about 400 meters/1310 feet, reaching the farthest point of excursion to the left 1300 meters/4260 feet past the runway threshold, before it crossed the runway edge again onto the runway and crossed the runway at a track of 121 degrees magnetic crossing the right runway edge 1620 meters/5310 feet down the runway. The aircraft came to a stop south of the runway on grass about 60 meters off the runway and 1780 meters/5840 feet past the runway threshold."Great Video...

I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me 

Surprised that it happened to SIA.

Can happen to anyone really....SIA is as human as anyone else.No one hurt, no real damage to the Aircraft, and a couple of embaressed pilots is all.A minor incident like that is not a reflection on the good work they do at SIA.Cheers

I'm not sure if the pilots are to blame entirely though. If they reacted sooner I suppose they could have prevented the excursion. But I don't have enough information to make that determination yet. Just 'preliminary'....
