Narrative:
The first officer was flying a visual approach to bwd landing runway 17. As she approached final she was fast on speed, but ok on altitude. When she flared, speed was decreasing, but she still had some power in, and the aircraft floated. I told her to get it down quick. The mains touched then the nose came down. When she reached for the power levers, she got them caught on the gate and couldn't get them into reverse. When she did get them into reverse she couldn't pull it back into full reverse. I took over the controls as the nosewheel went off the end of the runway (we were just about stopped). Since the nose went off I added power and kept the plane moving and taxied it back onto the runway. No lights or anything else was damaged. Causes: lack of strength by first officer, and bad setup on approach. Correction: I should have taken plane earlier or first officer should have gone around.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: FO OF AN LTT LOST CTL OF THE ACFT DURING LNDG AND RAN OFF THE END OF THE RWY. NO DAMAGE OR INJURIES.
Narrative: THE FO WAS FLYING A VISUAL APCH TO BWD LNDG RWY 17. AS SHE APCHED FINAL SHE WAS FAST ON SPD, BUT OK ON ALT. WHEN SHE FLARED, SPD WAS DECREASING, BUT SHE STILL HAD SOME PWR IN, AND THE ACFT FLOATED. I TOLD HER TO GET IT DOWN QUICK. THE MAINS TOUCHED THEN THE NOSE CAME DOWN. WHEN SHE REACHED FOR THE PWR LEVERS, SHE GOT THEM CAUGHT ON THE GATE AND COULDN'T GET THEM INTO REVERSE. WHEN SHE DID GET THEM INTO REVERSE SHE COULDN'T PULL IT BACK INTO FULL REVERSE. I TOOK OVER THE CTLS AS THE NOSEWHEEL WENT OFF THE END OF THE RWY (WE WERE JUST ABOUT STOPPED). SINCE THE NOSE WENT OFF I ADDED PWR AND KEPT THE PLANE MOVING AND TAXIED IT BACK ONTO THE RWY. NO LIGHTS OR ANYTHING ELSE WAS DAMAGED. CAUSES: LACK OF STRENGTH BY FO, AND BAD SETUP ON APCH. CORRECTION: I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN PLANE EARLIER OR FO SHOULD HAVE GONE AROUND.
