Air France 358.Pdf AVIATION INVESTIGATION REPORT A05H0002 RUNWAY OVERRUN AND FIRE AIR FRANCE AIRBUS A340-313 F-GLZQ TORONTO/LESTER B. PEARSON INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, ONTARIO 02 AUGUST 2005 The Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) investigated this occurrence for the purpose of advancing transportation safety. It is not the function of the Board to assign fault or determine civil or criminal liability. Aviation Investigation Report Runway Overrun and Fire Air France Airbus A340-313 F-GLZQ Toronto/Lester B. Pearson International Airport, Ontario 02 August 2005 Report Number A05H0002 Synopsis The Air France Airbus A340-313 aircraft (registration F-GLZQ, serial number 0289) departed Paris, France, at 1153 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as Air France Flight 358 on a scheduled flight to Toronto, Ontario, with 297 passengers and 12 crew members on board. Before departure, the flight crew members obtained their arrival weather forecast, which included the possibility of thunderstorms. While approaching Toronto, the flight crew members were advised of weather-related delays. On final approach, they were advised that the crew of an aircraft landing ahead of them had reported poor braking action, and Air France Flight 358’s aircraft weather radar was displaying heavy precipitation encroaching on the runway from the northwest. At about 200 feet above the runway threshold, while on the instrument landing system approach to Runway 24L with autopilot and autothrust disconnected, the aircraft deviated above the glideslope and the groundspeed began to increase. The aircraft crossed the runway threshold about 40 feet above the glideslope. During the flare, the aircraft travelled through an area of heavy rain, and visual contact with the runway environment was significantly reduced. There were numerous lightning strikes occurring, particularly at the far end of the runway. The aircraft touched down about 3800 feet down the runway, reverse thrust was selected about 12.8 seconds after landing, and full reverse was selected 16.4 seconds after touchdown. The aircraft was not able to stop on the 9000-foot runway and departed the far end at a groundspeed of about 80 knots. The aircraft stopped in a ravine at 2002 UTC (1602 eastern daylight time) and caught fire. All passengers and crew members were able to evacuate the aircraft before the fire reached the escape routes. A total of 2 crew members and 10 passengers were seriously injured during the crash and the ensuing evacuation.

Our goal in this new economy is to ensure that travellers continue to use Toronto Pearson. To accomplish this, we developed a four-step action plan that focused on saving costs in a variety of ways. Despite posting a six per cent decline in traffi c, we introduced a reduction in airline landing fees and terminal charges, as well as a partner incentive plan, which made Toronto Pearson even more attractive and brought new airlines to our facility. We took the opportunity to prepare for the future. This means we are well-positioned for growth in the coming years and are looking forward to reaping the results of the groundwork we’ve laid.

  • Air France-KLM's 2020 Outlook Clouded by the Coronavirus
    Air France-KLM's 2020 outlook clouded by the coronavirus I Letter from the Air France - KLM Director François Robardet Representative of the employees and former employee shareholders PS and PNC N°744, February 24, 2020 If you do not see this page correctly, or if you want to read the English or Dutch versions If you do not see this page correctly, or if you want to read the English or Dutch versions, Als u deze pagina niet goed ziet, of als u de Engelse of Nederlandse versie wilt lezen , follow this link , it is here, vindt u deze hier Monday's Press Review > Air France-KLM's 2020 outlook clouded by coronavirus (source Le Journal de l'Aviation) 20 February - 2019 will have been a mixed year for Air France-KLM . The group recorded a 2.6% increase in turnover to 23.27 billion euros, demonstrating the good performance of its activities. On the other hand, it suffered from the rise in its oil bill and the sluggish freight market, which weighed heavily on net and operating res ults. These lost 30.9% and 18.8% respectively (to 290 and 1,141 million euros). And if the beginning of 2020 had started rather well, giving the group hope for a positive evolution of the unit revenue in the first quarter, the consequences on air transport of the coronavirus epidemic have completely reversed the trend. But every year is enough punishment. The 2019 one will have been the cargo ship . Volumes have been declining worldwide for 14 months due to geopolitical uncertainties, following a general in crease in supply that created overcapacity.
