## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

THIS INVESTIGATION HAS DETERMINED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT NO MECHANICAL IRREGULARITIES, OR AIRCRAFT COMPONENTS CONTRIBUTED TO THE INCIDENT. THE FLIGHT CREW LANDED THE AIRCRAFT WITH NOT ENOUGH AVAILABLE RUNWAY CONSIDERING THE RUNWAY WAS WET AND NOT GROOVED. SECTIONS OF THE OPERATORS GOM AND AFM INDICATED THE FLIGHT CREW MUST USE LANDING DISTANCES CORRECTED FOR CONTAMINATED SURFACES. THE STANDING WATER CORRECTED LANDING DISTANCE IS BASED ON THE UN-FACTORED LANDING DISTANCE FOR A DRY RUNWAY. THE CREW MUST THEN CALCULATE THE ADDITIONAL DISTANCE FOR THE REGULATORY REQUIREMENT.THE AVAILABLE RUNWAY DISTANCE AT KPOC FOR THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT WOULD NOT BE ENOUGH ACCORDING TO THE PERFORMANCE DATA FOR THE AIRCRAFT.PILOT STATES APPROACH, TOUCHDOWN WERE NORMAL.  WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED, NO ACTION WAS NOTED.  PILOT SWITCHED TO EMERGENCY BRAKES AND AGAIN, NO BRAKING ACTION WAS AVAILABLE.  AIRCRAFT DEPARTED THE END OF THE RUNWAY, HIT TWO RUNWAY LIGHTS, AND PROCEEDED APPROXIMATELY 200 YARDS THROUGH MUD UNTIL AIRCRAFT CAME TO A STOP.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
