- Date: February 16, 2000
- Aircraft: NAMC YS-11
- Location: Sapporo-Okadama, Hokkaidō, Japan
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: Unstabilized high and fast approach onto a contaminated runway, with no go-around when the landing was clearly missed and reduced braking from the snow.
An Air Nippon YS-11 approached Sapporo-Okadama too high and too fast, then landed far down a snow-covered runway. It could not stop in the remaining distance, overran and came to rest against a snow bank. All 41 occupants escaped uninjured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
