An ACT Airlines Boeing 747-400F ran off the runway after landing in Hong Kong on 20 October 2025, struck a vehicle and crashed into the sea. Investigators have found no relevant technical defect so far; the investigation continues, including analysis of the fourth engine and cockpit recordings.

Why it matters: De technische oorzaak is niet vastgesteld; verdere analyse door AAIA en NTSB moet duidelijkheid bieden over de plotselinge stuwkrachttoename.
