The Republic of Korea Air Force has completed its investigation into the Black Eagles incident in Singapore on Feb. 6 and concluded that pilot error was the cause.
The aircraft veered off the runway while taking-off to perform on the first day of the Singapore Air Force.
Investigators determined that the pilot had disengaged the nose wheel steering prematurely. That leads to the jet leaning towards the right side of the runway while accelerating for take off. Proper procedure is to abort the take off but the pilot choose to continue the take off run and correct his mistake. Ultimately, the jet skid off the runway and flipped over.
