'Couldn't bring to complete stop': Why trainer aircraft ran off Baramati runway
The aircraft reportedly crossed the threshold of Runway 29 at the Baramati airfield, reaching around 20 feet beyond the end of the runway.
A private trainer aircraft crashed at the Baramati airstrip after skidding off the runway during a training exercise on Sunday. The plane, belonging to a private aviation academy, was performing a rejected take-off when it went off the paved surface. Captain Chirag Shashikant Doifode and cadet Abhijeet Jundre managed to escape unharmed. The reason behind the mishap was that the aircraft failed to come to a complete stop while taxiing along the runway, causing it to continue beyond the threshold of Runway 29.
