- Date: June 19, 2016
- Aircraft: BAe 146
- Location: Khark, Bushehr, Iran
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: Iran AAIB final report (April 2017, as summarized by secondary sources): the captain's decision to land on runway 13 with a tailwind from an unstabilized approach without going around, and weak crew resource management. Contributing were a right main gear antiskid failure, variable winds in the traffic pattern and late use of airbrakes and spoilers.
On 19 June 2016 a Mahan Air BAe 146 (EP MOF, flight IRM4525) carrying 79 passengers and 10 crew landed at Khark Island on runway 13 with a tailwind after an unstabilized visual approach. It overran the runway by about 54 m onto unpaved ground, the nose gear collapsed, and the captain ordered an evacuation; no one was killed. The Iranian AAIB final report of April 2017 blamed the captain's decision to land without a go around, with a right main gear antiskid failure as a contributing factor.
