On 5 December 2022, a Boeing 737-800 overran the end of the runway at Dortmund despite initially making a normal wet runway touchdown after a stabilised Cat 2 ILS approach with low visibility procedures in force. The unexpected continuation onto the clearway was followed by a stop within it. The most recent pre-landing runway condition measurements gave good braking action on the whole length of the runway but after the overrun, it was found that this was no longer the case for the middle section of the runway and concluded that this had been the sole cause of the overrun.
