December 20, 20205 yr This time going off the runway. These guys need some serious pilot training. Lion Air Boeing 737 skids runway due to heavy rain in Indonesia - Aero World (aerospcworld.com) Edited December 20, 20205 yr by Garys
December 20, 20205 yr At least they were on the ground having landed safely and doing a 180 turn to backtrack. I say that heavy rain was pretty much not a factor once they were at such a slow speed. Certainly there "should" not have been any aquaplaning IMO. The plane skidded due to the crew letting the nosewheels understeer and/or not looking exactly where they were going - my conjecture of course! Perhaps they need to go into the aircraft.cfg file and re-examine the contact points? As it was only a -900, MAX autobrake wasn't available..
