A Trans Arabian Air Transport Boeing 707 cargo flight to Juba was too high on the glide slope and touched down far down the runway. The crew did not go around, and the aircraft could not stop, overran about 150 metres and came to rest. All five crew escaped uninjured and the aircraft was written off.
