About 1849 m.s.t., June 19, 1980, a McDonnell Douglas DC-9-80, N1002G, skidded off the right side of runway 21R while attempting a simulated hydraulic-systems-inoperative landing at the Yuma lnternationaI Airport, Yuma, Arizona. The aircraft came to rest about 6,700 feet beyond the landing threshold of the runway. The aircraft was damaged substantially, however the three flightcrew members were not injured. There were no passengers. The weather was clear. The aircraft was on a certification test flight. The purpose of the flight was to show that the aircraft could be controlled adequately and landed safely with a complete failure of its hydraulic systems. The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the inadequate procedure established for the certification test flight, and the pilot's mismanagement of thrust following the initial loss of directional control.
