Observers on the ground reported the right hand gear emitted smoke during the landing roll prompting an immediate response by emergency services, who doused the right hand main gear after the aircraft came to a stop.
The runway was closed for about 4 hours until the aircraft was towed off the runway.
No Metars are available, the local weather station reported visibilities of 8 to 16km between 02:00L and 11:00L, light rain at 02:00L and 05:00L, light mist subsequently, light winds from north/northeast up to 08:00L and winds from eastnortheast at 25 kph (13.5 knots) at 11:00L, temperatures between 24 and 28 degrees C.
The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) released their executive summary of the final report concluding the probable cause of the occurrence, rated accident by CAAP though stating there were no injuries and the aircraft did not sustain substantial damage:
Primary Cause Factor
Failure of the flight crew to discontinue the approach even though prevailing conditions suggest that a missed approach should have been more appropriate. (Human Factor)
Contributory Factor
The decision of the Pilot Flying to take runway 23 at less than 4 DME putting them at a high work load that resulted to late configuration of the aircraft. (Human Factor)
The CAAP reported the weather conditions were fair when the aircraft landed on runway 23 but overran the end of the runway coming to a stop on a grassy portion 56 meters past the runway end.
