Remarks: Flight
705 departed Dhahran at 21.22GMT for Cairo. The flight was uneventful and at
23.40GMT it was cleared for a left-hand circuit for runway 34. At 23.45h the
crew reported turning on finals. The Boeing 720 kept descending and struck the
ground short of the runway.
Probable cause: "The
aircraft did not maintain the adequate height for the circuit and continued to
descend until it contacted the ground. The reason for that abnormal continuation
of descent is unknown". According to some aviation experts wind shear caused
this accident.
