Circumstances:
Following an uneventful flight from Roatán, the crew started the approach to San Pedro Sula Airport Runway 04. After touchdown, the pilot applied brake when the aircraft encountered controllability problems. It veered off runway to the left, went through a grassy area, lost its undercarriage and came to rest with its nose in a drainage ditch located 40 metres to the left of the runway. All 19 occupants escaped uninjured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
