Dash-8 Runway Excursion

[pelmet]

Class 5 investigation, so this is quite possibly all you will ever hear about it....

C-GNSV, a Voyageur Airways De Havilland of Canada DHC-8-402 was conducting flight UNO517P
from Bentui (HJBT), South Sudan to Malakal Intl. (HJMK), South Sudan. During descent to HJMK,
“#2 HYD ISO VLV” caution light illuminated indicating low hydraulic quantity in the #2 system. The
Flight crew actioned the appropriate QRH checklist and briefed the cabin crew in accordance with
Standard Operating Procedures. The QRH directed the Flight Crew to use asymmetric braking and
power to maintain directional control upon landing and to conduct an Alternate Landing Gear
Extension. During landing roll and while decelerating through 80 kts the PIC became aware that
braking was not effective. The PIC called for the SIC to assist. Prior to the SIC assisting and while
continuously applying toe brake pressure and asymmetric power the aircraft exited the right side of
runway. The aircraft stopped with the left main wheel still on the runway and the nose and right
main wheel in the soft clay soil. The engines were secured and Flight Crew communicated with the
cabin crew and passengers. ATC and Emergency Services were advised and Passengers were
escorted with no reported injuries. Damage to the aircraft is limited to nose landing gear doors.
Maintenance is troubleshooting.

A Voyageur de Havilland Dash 8-400, registration C-GNSV performing a flight from Juba to Malakal (South Sudan), had landed in Malakal. The aircraft was subsequently seen right off and past the end of runway 04, it is unclear whether the runway excursion happened on landing or the subsequent takeoff. There were no injuries.

The aircraft has not been seen on ADS-B in about 30 hours since the landing in Malakal.

The aircraft was carrying a UN medical team.

How do incidents that happen on the other side of the world end up in our cadors system?

Canadian aircraft.

Yeah, that could be tricky. I believe you lose the nose wheel steering if you lose #2 hydraulics if memory serves correctly. Also one of the rudder PCU's. A few other things too, but those are the ones that could effect directional control anyway.

C-GNSV operated by a Canadian operator, on a Canadian OC, with a Canadian crew.
