  • Summary

  • On June 10, 2008, Sudan Airways Flight 109 was on its final approach to Khartoum International Airport after a long journey from Amman, Jordan, with a brief stop in Damascus, Syria. Onboard were 214 people, including passengers and crew. As the Airbus A310 touched down, the aircraft overran the wet runway, ultimately coming to rest beyond its end. Moments later, the right side of the aircraft was engulfed in flames. While many onboard managed to escape, 30 lives were tragically lost in the aftermath.


    What caused this aircraft to overrun the runway and why did it catch fire after landing? Today, we explore The Flight Files of Sudan Airways Flight 109.
