Narrative:
Biman flight 048 departed Dubai for a regular flight to Chittagong and Dhaka, Bangladesh. Weather at Chittagong was poor. When the DC-10 approached the airport (08:50 local, 02:50 UTC), the METAR read: VGEG 010250Z 18006KT 1800 RAIN BKN007 SCT013 FEW026CB OVC080 26/25 Q100 3 TEMPO
S/VIS 2KM OR LESS= (wind 180 degrees at 6 kts, visibility 1800m, rain, 5-7 oktas cloud at 700feet, 3-4 oktas cloud at 1300feet, 0-2 oktas cloud at 2600feet with thunder clouds 8 oktas overcast cloud at 8000feet, temperature 26C dewpoint 25C temporarily visibility 2 km).
The aircraft touched down on runway 23 but ran off the right side of the runway, into the grass. The right hand undercarriage collapsed and the plane sank a meter-deep into the mud, causing severe damage to the right hand wing and the separation of the nr. 3 engine. The airplane came to rest 7300 feet from the runway 23 threshold. Chittagong has a single runway (05/23) which measures 9646 150 feet.

Even as a kid, I have always been amazed with flight - and yet as magical as flying seems to be - The burning of fossil fuels by the aviation industry is not sustainable! The industry (and each of us) are in fervent denial, even though the industry espouses their green credentials. This charade will be one of the many atrocities that destroys a human habitable world. Though the Earth does not care, WE as the dominant species should! To fly is to massively pollute! . . . and will hasten our own demise.
