Video footage from a doorbell camera installed at a house beyond the runway shows the aircraft passing low overhead, missing electrical wires by mere feet.
A cargo aircraft that struck the top of a tree at the end of a runway as it took off was 606lbs (274kg) overweight, according to an investigation into the incident. On February 3, 2022, an Aerosucre Boeing 737-200 with a crew of five took off from Puerto Carreno Airport in Colombia at a dangerously low altitude and, as it became airborne and the landing gear retracted, clipped the top of a 46ft high tree located (967ft) past the end of the runway. The crew returned to the airport around 20 minutes after departure after the left-hand engine lost power. A subsequent inspection found that the engine had ingested vegetation and vegetation was discovered embedded in parts of the left wing. el avión que por poco se cae en puerto carreño vichada. casi vuelve a pasar una tragedia nuevamente Before returning to the airport the Bogota-bound aircraft climbed to 2,500ft and the crew restarted the left-hand engine. However, it was overheating and smoke was seen coming out of it after the aircraft landed, though no fire was evident. As reported in the Aviation Herald, Colombia's Aeronautica Civil released its findings into the 'serious incident' this week, concluding that the aircraft became airborne too far down the runway owing to 'extreme conditions of aircraft weight', with thinner air density caused by a warmer temperature than expected - 33.9C - pinpointed as another contributing factor. It was also noted that the first officer claimed that the captain did not get the aircraft airborne when he called out that take-off speed had been called - possibly because of the extra weight. The report said that 'late rotation [when the pilot pulls the nose of the aircraft up to take off] caused by extreme conditions of aircraft weight and density altitude… did not permit the aircraft to achieve a sufficient climb rate, climb angle and altitude to clear the obstacles in the take-off trajectory'. The crew was apparently aware that the aircraft was overweight – at 108,577lbs versus a maximum take-off weight of 107,950lbs - and was criticised in the report for being 'overconfident' in their assumption that they could lose weight during the taxi for departure. The incident comes seven years after an Aerosucre plane overshot the runway at Puerto Carreno and crashed, killing five people, with one person surviving. Witnesses captured dramatic footage of the flight overshooting the runway and struggling to gain altitude. The footage then shows the Boeing 727 aircraft descending into a field and bursting into flames. Video Link |

I’m guessing it was way more than 600 pounds overweight. Probably a missing zero.

I would have thought that taking so long to reach V1 would have resulted in a rejected takeoff.

Quoted: Or, reduced thrust set to low + bad technique. 600lbs is nominal in a 737. View Quote Do straight pipe 737s do derated takeoffs? I’m a Learjet45 and Falcon guy. We just go to the TO detent in the 45. In the Falcon we just hit the stop. DEEC takes care of the rest. We don’t care about gas in that plane. Pull it back to go downhill. |

Does anyone remember the Aerosucre crash from maybe 5 years back? It was posted here.
Almost an exact same scenario except they crashed and died. Barely made it over a fence. Etc. Looks like maybe they didnt learn a whole lot from the experience. |

[AirClips] For the seasoned 737 pilots here, what's going on when the PNF puts the landing gear handle in what looks like a middle position, is it because that the 200 series didn't have main gear doors ? |

Can't imagine what it is like living in one of those houses at the end of the runway.

Meh. The plane's really not overloaded unless you almost take out the Taj Mahal.
