A Max Air Boeing 737-400 (registered 5N-MBD) suffered multiple tyre bursts upon landing at Abuja Airport, Nigeria, operating a domestic flight from Yola. The 144 passengers and 6 crew members safely left the aircraft. The airport authorities were forced to close the airport for a period to remove the 737 from the runway.
Very little is known about the airline, but planespotters.net reports that Max Air has actually 4 Boeing 737s, 1 Boeing 747 and 2 Embraer ERJ-145s in service.
