The privately operated Phenom 300, arriving from Milan’s Malpensa Airport with a single pilot and three passengers aboard, overflew the Blackbushe aerodrome, southwest of London, before circling to a left downwind for Runway 25.
Aftermath: A Question of Judgment
Key Takeaways:
- A Phenom 300 jet fatally overran the runway at Blackbushe Airport after an unstable, excessively high-speed approach.
- The pilot's approach was complicated by managing other traffic and a high cognitive load from numerous simultaneous cockpit warnings and radio communications.
- Ultimately, the accident was attributed to the pilot's "fixation" on landing, preventing him from initiating a necessary go-around despite the clearly unsafe approach parameters.
