NTSB Accident & Incident Record

Jun 3, 2002 Accident Substantial Subic Bay
InjuriesNone
Phase of Flight-
ConditionsIMC
OperationFAR 121
Probable Cause

The momentary operation of the airplane outside of the airplane's aerodynamic design stall buffet boundary that resulted from the captain's initiation of a Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS) escape maneuver. Factor's contributing to the accident were the false readings of both radio altimeters which prompted the false GPWS warning, and the inadequate structural capability of the elevator design to remain intact during momentary operations outside of the stall buffet boundary.
