4. CONTENTS

5. INTRODUCTION TO THE INCIDENT
Air India Express Flight 812 was a
scheduled international
flight from Dubai to Mangalore. On 22
May 2010, the Boeing 737-
800 passenger jet operating the flight,
crashed on landing at Mangalore. The
captain had continued an unstabilized
approach, despite three calls from
the first officer to initiate a "go-around",
resulting in the aircraft overshooting the
runway, falling down a hillside, and
bursting into flames. Of the 166
passengers and crew on board, 158
were killed (all six crew members and
152 passengers); only eight survived.
This was the first fatal accident involving
Air India Express.

6. DETAILS OF THE FLIGHT

Date 22 May 2010

7. REASON FOR THE AIRCRAFT TO
CRASH
• After touching down on the 8,033-foot
(2,448 m) runway 24, the plane overran and
crashed down the hill at its far end. The final
conversations between air traffic control (ATC) and
the pilot prior to the landing showed no indication
of distress.
• The then-Civil Aviation Minister, Praful Patel, said
that the aircraft was following an instrument
landing system (ILS) approach for landing on the
newer, longer runway, which was commissioned in
2006. The pilot reported to ATC that it was
'established' on an ILS approach about 4.3 miles
(6.9 km) from touchdown; landing clearance was
then given at 2,000 feet (610 m) from touchdown.
The aircraft concluded its ILS approach on runway
24, touching down 5,200 feet (1,600 m) from the
start of the runway, leaving 2,800 feet (850 m) in
which to stop. It overran the runway and plowed
through a 90-meter (300 ft) sand arrestor bed,
which did not stop it.

10. LOCATION OF THE CRASH

11. RESPONSE AFTER THE INCIDENT
Local villagers were among the first on the
scene to help while an estimated 15 fire
trucks, 20 ambulances, and 100 rescue
workers were immediately allocated to
rescue operations. Karnataka Western Range
Inspector General of Police, Gopal Hosur,
said that eight to ten people had been moved
to hospitals and that the Karnataka Police
force, bomb squad, Karnataka Fire and
Emergency Services, Karnataka State
Reserve Police and all hospitals were
working together to help out. The Central
Industrial Security Force (CISF) sent 150
personnel to Mangalore to help in the relief
and rescue operations. Bodies of all of the
deceased were recovered from the crash site
on the day of the crash, with relatives of the
deceased receiving 87 of the bodies.

12. AIRCRAFT AND CREW
The accident involved a Boeing 737-
800 aircraft, one of Boeing's 737
Next Generation series, with aircraft
registration VT–AXV and
manufacturer's serial number 36333,
line number 2481. The aircraft first
flew on 20 December 2007 with the
Boeing test registration N1787B and
was delivered on 18 January 2008.
Commanded by Captain Zlatko
Glušica, the remaining crew
consisted of first officer Harbinder
Singh Ahluwalia and four flight
attendants.

13. LITERATURE REVIEW
Human factors are a major factor in
many aircraft accidents. Such was the
case with Air India Express Flight
812 which crashed during landing on
May 22, 2010. The accident
investigation revealed poor crew
communication while continuing an
unstabilized approach as contributing
factor. As a result, 158 occupants
perished when the Boeing 737-
800 overshot a runway in Mangalore,
India. This event has been classified
as the country’s third-deadliest
aviation disaster.
