Runway is 4500 Feet. Plenty of length for that plane.


I wounder about the double bounce and the cause. Both pilots were very experienced. They have video of the entire crash from surveillance cameras that caught the whole thing. The 2nd bounce that came down hard on right gear and collapsed it. Maybe a wind shear as they landed?
