Jeju Air 7C2216, which departed the Thai capital of Bangkok for Muan in southwestern South Korea, belly-landed and overshot the regional airport’s runway, exploding into flames after hitting an embankment.
He said he will try to find the right timing to resign after addressing the current situation.
Air safety experts have said the embankment, designed to prop up the “localizer” antenna used to guide landings in poor visibility, was too rigid and too close to the end of the runway.
The police are investigating how the embankment was constructed, he said. The police last week raided Jeju Air and the operator of Muan International Airport as part of their investigation into the crash.
Two of the Korean investigators on Monday left for the United States to recover and analyse a flight data recorder which was damaged during the crash, with the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board.
Lee said it will take three days to extract files from the flight data recorder, and another two days to do preliminary analysis of basic information such as whether one or two engines failed.
Experts say
do not typically cause landing gear to malfunction.
