385 N666DS Citation S550 Crash in San Diego – Flying below Minimums
AI Analyze
Overview
Max Trescott analyzes the Citation S550 crash due to flying below minimums during an RNAV approach at night.
Takeaways
- •The pilot flew the RNAV GPS-28R approach incorrectly, descending below the glide path and leveling off twice like a non-precision approach, increasing risk.
- •Fatigue likely impaired the pilot's judgment after a 7.5-hour flight, with the crash occurring during circadian low hours, leading to destabilized approach management.
- •Older avionics complicated autopilot vertical guidance, and the pilot’s choice of RNAV over the simpler ILS may have contributed to the accident.
