Air China's aircraft nose wheel collapses...

Post by SN30952 »

Four passengers and 16 crew members were slightly injured when the front wheel of the B767 withdrew automatically as it was being pushed back from the gate on T1.
Sunday evening @ Peking Airport.
The flight was preparing for Dubai.
The 168 passengers on their way to Dubai were flown out on a replacement plane four hours later.

No, ElcoB, I missed that one, because I had to clean (too much) hate mail from my mailbox. Some brothers have time to keep me busy. :lol:
I took some time to set the filters.

It seems I hit a sensible point. Some seem to trow bombs, others insults.
As long it stays with the last ones in my direction, I can live with it.
After 3 dozens, I got bored. These guys get organised and pass on the e-mail address, then the message is repeated. But as long as they not change the subject, the filters can handle these mails swiftly.

And luckily nobody got hurt by the bombs this WE, except some brothers.

But admit, my 'collapsed nose wheel' post was well documented.
And I slept well, ElcoB, thank you.

And sorry, Moons / A, I did not see your 'Air China plane on his nose at the tarmac'. Please don't shoot at the piano player, he is only doing the best he can. :oops:
I'll try harder.

No problem, SN30952

We aren't journalists who are competing each other to have a scoop I think. We just look at newssites and bring in the relevant information to Luchtzak. :) And indeed so, your information was more detailed.

regards
