Final Report B738 (B-1949), Busan South Korea, 7 September 2019
On 7 September 2019, the crew of a Boeing 737-800 completed a circling approach to runway 18R by making their final approach to and a landing on runway 18L contrary to their clearance. The Investigation found that during the turn onto final approach, the Captain flying the approach had not appropriately balanced aircraft control by reference to flight instruments with the essential visual reference despite familiarity with both the aircraft and the procedure involved. It was concluded that the monitoring provided by the relatively low experience First Officer had been inadequate and indicative of collectively poor CRM.
