Fifty feet above the runway the co-pilot, who was not flying the aircraft, decided that there was insufficient runway left to land and tried to perform a go-around against the captain's wishes. The aircraft touched down 1,773 meters beyond the runway threshold. The aircraft could not be stopped on the remaining 1,227 meters of runway and overran at a speed of 104 knots. After striking the airport wall and a guard post at 30 knots, the aircraft burst into flames and was incinerated. The cabin crew was credited with safely evacuating all passengers although only half of the aircraft's emergency exits were usable. * 17 October 2001: Pakistan International Airlines flight PK231, registration AP-BCJ, from [[Islamabad International Airport|Islamabad]] via [[Bacha Khan International Airport|Peshawar]] to [[Dubai International Airport|Dubai]] veered off the side of the runway after the right hand main landing gear collapsed as it touched down. The aircraft skidded and eventually came to rest in sand 50 meters from the runway. The aircraft sustained damage to its right wing structure and its no. 2 engine, which partly broke off the wing. All 205 passengers and crew survived.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20011017-0| title=Aviation Safety Network Report PIA Flight PK231| publisher=Aviation-Safety-Network| date=17 October 2001|access-date=18 February 2024}}</ref> * 1 March 2004: Pakistan International Airlines Flight 2002 burst 2 tyres whilst taking off from [[King Abdulaziz International Airport]]. Fragments of the tyre were ingested by the engines, this caused the engines to catch fire and an aborted takeoff was performed. Due to the fire substantial damage to the engine and the left wing caused the aircraft to be written off. All 261 passengers and 12 crew survived.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20040301-0 |title=PIA Flight 2002 accident |publisher=Aviation-safety.net |access-date=16 March 2010}}</ref> * 16 November 2012: an [[Air Contractors]] Airbus A300B4-203(F) EI-EAC, operating flight QY6321 on behalf of [[EAT Leipzig]] from Leipzig (Germany) to Bratislava (Slovakia), suffered a nose wheel collapse during roll out after landing at Bratislava's [[M.
