About 0819 P.s.t. on April 5, 1976, Alaska Airlines, Inc., Flight 60, a Boeing 727-81, N124AS, overran the departure end of runway 11 at Ketchikan International Airport, Ketchikan, Alaska. The aircraft crashed in a ravine about 700 feet past the runway threshold. There were 43 passengers and a crew of 7 on board. As a result of the crash, 1 person died and 32 passengers were injured. The aircraft was destroyed by impact and ground fire. The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the accident was the captain's faulty judgment in initiating a go around after he was committed to a full-stop landing following an excessively long and fast touchdown from an unstabilized approach.
