F I N A L R E P O R T concerning the accident occurred on 31 March, 1992, to the BOEING 707 registered 5N-MAS (Nigeria) - Trans-Air Limited Company. MINISTRY OF EQUIPMENT, TRANSPORTS AND TOURISM GENERAL INSPECTORATE FOR CIVIL AVIATION AND METEOROLOGY FRANCE MINISTRY OF EQUIPMENT, TRANSPORTS AND TOURISM Paris, 28 June, 1993 R E P O R T concerning the accident which occurred on 31 March, 1992 to the Boeing 707 registered 5N-MAS (Nigeria), operated by the Trans-Air Limited Company F O R E W O R D This report reflects the technical point of view of the French Accident Investigation Bureau BEA team assembled to investigate the circumstances and causes of the accident. In compliance with Annex 13 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, the analysis was not carried out and the conclusions and safety recommendations were not drawn up with an objective to apportion blame or individual or collective liability. Basically, this technical investigation aims at preventing further accidents. Consequently, since doubt must benefit safety, some recommendations that have been suggested refer to points whose accurate demonstration has not always been possible, or in some case, are not directly connected with the causes of this accident. This report has been drawn up after thorough investigation and, therefore, is based on knowledge which may notably differ from that prevailing when the accident took place. Finally, although the people and the organizations, whose opinions have been considered as relevant, have been requested to submit their information in due time, this inquiry has been carried out without using contradictory proceedings.
