TAM Airlines Flight 3054 (JJ3054/TAM3054) was an Airbus A320-233, registration PR-MBK, on a scheduled domestic passenger flight from Porto Alegre to São Paulo, Brazil. On July 17, 2007, the Airbus A320, overran runway 35L at São Paulo during heavy rain and crashed into a nearby TAM Express warehouse adjacent to a Shell filling station. All 187 passengers and crew aboard Airbus A320 died, along with 12 people on the ground.〔 (Globo.com ), Globo G1 Noticias Retrieved July 23, 2007〕 It surpassed Gol Transportes Aéreos Flight 1907 as the deadliest air disaster in Brazilian territory, and remains the deadliest aviation accident involving an Airbus A320 proper worldwide. It was also the deadliest accident involving an aircraft of the A320 family at the time, which was later surpassed by the bombing of Metrojet Flight 9268, an A321-231, which crashed in Egypt in October 2015 with 224 fatalities. The accident was investigated by the Brazilian Air Force's Aeronautical Accidents Investigation and Prevention Center ((ポルトガル語:Centro de Investigação e Prevenção de Acidentes Aeronáuticos) (CENIPA)), with a final report issued in September 2009. CENIPA concluded that the accident was caused by errors committed by the pilots on the flight to São Paulo. ==Aircraft and crew== The aircraft serving Flight 3054 was an Airbus A320-233, serial number 789, registration PR-MBK, powered by two IAE V2500-533 engines. It was built in February 1998 and first entered service in March flying for TACA Peru as N454TA, later serving in the fleet of Pacific Airlines as VN-A168. The aircraft was owned by Pegasus Aviation before entering service with TAM in January 2007. As of April 20, 2007, the aircraft had flown almost 21,000 hours over 10,000 cycles. The aircraft was dispatched with the thrust reverser (a mechanical device to help slow the airplane down on landing) on the number 2 (right-side) engine deactivated, as it had jammed. TAM said in a statement that a fault in a reverser "does not jeopardize landings", and that no mechanical problem had been recorded on July 16, the day before the accident.〔 〕 It was reported that the aircraft had no difficulty braking on the same runway a day before the fatal accident.〔 The deactivated thrust reverser on the number 2 engine was confirmed by Airbus on July 25.〔 The flight was under the command of an experienced cockpit crew, consisting of Captain Henrique Stefanini Di Sacco (53) and Co-Pilot Kleyber Lima (54). Both pilots had been flying for over 30 years. The captain had accrued nearly 13,700 flight hours throughout his career and the co-pilot had almost 14,800 hours of flying experience.〔http://www.cenipa.aer.mil.br/cenipa/paginas/relatorios/pdf/3054ing.pdf〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「TAM Airlines Flight 3054」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
