TAROM Flight 381 was a scheduled flight from Bucharest Henri Conada Airport to Paris Orly Airport that stalled on approach in Orly Airport.
Aircraft
The Airbus A310 was given to TAROM as YR-LCA in December 1992 until it was then part of the Airbus Industrie in April 2007 as F-WQAV until given back to TAROM as YR-LCA in July 2007. The aircraft was then sold to Armenia Airways registered as EK-31001 in 2018 until given to Iran Airtour in 2020 as EP-MDK and is still in operation.
The Incident

The Aircraft was on approach to Paris Orly airport until it started doing an uncommanded nose-up position that lead to a stall. The crew tried to countermand the aircraft control system but were unable to get the nose down while remaining on course.[1] Only when the dive produced additional speed was the crew able to recover steady flight. An investigation found that an overshoot of flap placard speed during approach, incorrectly commanded by the captain, caused a mode transition to flight level change. The auto-throttles increased power and trim went full nose-up as a result. The crew attempt at commanding the nose-down elevator could not counteract effect of stabilizer nose-up trim, and the resulting dive brought the plane from a height of 4100 feet at the time of the stall to 800 feet when the crew was able to recover command. The plane landed safely after a second approach.
Media
There is a 29-second clip of the aircraft banking left and right and then shoots to another angle where the plane started dropping into a nose-down position.
Trivia
- The Flight number 318 is still in operation but the destination is to Paris Charles de Gaulle instead of Orly Airport.
