According to the preliminary report of Serbia's Center for Investigation of Accidents in Transport, there were no mechanical issues with the aircraft or engines. The report indicates that air traffic control instructed the crew to proceed to the D6 taxiway intersection with Runway 30L for take-off from Runway 30L. However, the crew actually exited at the D5 intersection. Air traffic control informed the crew of this, and informed the crew that the available runway length from D5 was 1,273 meters. Air traffic control then asked if the crew would like to backtrack to the D6 intersection. The crew performed calculations and informed air traffic control that the plane could take off from the D5 position. The crew then received take-off clearance. However, as the plane accelerated past 100 knots, the crew realized that there was insufficient runway length to take off. Nevertheless, the crew did not abort the take-off. As a result, as the plane took off, it struck the approach lights to Runway 12R and the antennas for the airport's instrument landing system.[5]
