An initial report into a plane crash that killed three members of the Bin Laden family has revealed the jet's warning system issued six alerts: during the descent, the aircraft's Terrain Avoidance and Warning System (TAWS) issued six "pull up" warnings on final approach.
The jet's pilot, Jordanian Mazen Al-Aqeel Da'jah Salem, was killed. Bin Laden's half-sister, Sana Mohammed Bin Laden, her mother, Raja Bashir Hashim, and his brother-in-law, Zuhair Hashim, died in the crash.
The Saudi-registered Phenom 300 private jet was descending at a rate of about 2,500 ft per mile at 500 ft (152m) above the aerodrome, the Air Accidents Investigations Branch report stated.
According to the report, the Blackbushe runway has an available landing distance of 1,059m (3,474 ft).
Tyre marks indicated the plane landed just 349m before the end of the declared landing area and 438m before the end of the paved surface. It then crashed into a one-metre high earth bank, causing the nose landing gear and the nose gear doors to detach. The plane then briefly became airborne before crashing into vehicles at a British Car Auctions site at the airfield, losing one of its wings and bursting into flames.
