Aer Caribe AN26 at Otu on Jul 9th 2014, nose gear did not extend and runway excursion

An Aer Caribe Antonov AN-26, registration HK4728 performing a charter freight flight to Otu (Colombia) carrying four tons of explosives under military guard, was on approach to Otu when the crew was not able to extend the nose gear. All attempts to lower the nose gear failed forcing the crew to perform a nose gear up landing. The aircraft touched down safely but subsequently veered left off the runway and came to a stop with the left hand main gear on soft ground.

No weather data are available.

Uto features a runway 016L/34R of 950 meters/3100 feet length.

Due to a misleading date "07/06/2014" (which actually identifies Jun 7th, not Jul 6th) provided by GRIAA The Aviation Herald initially mistook and merged two occurrences into one.
