Cathay Pacific nødlanding i HKG

[kimmam]

En Cathay Pacific Airbus A333 måtte nødlande etter at en av motorene sviktet ved landing.

Åtte personer ble brakt til sykehus etter at et Airbus-fly fra selskapet Cathay Pacific nødlandet i Hongkong tirsdag. Årsaken ser ut til å være motortrøbbel.

This spokesman also said that during landing, all four tyres on the left hand side of the aircraft had deflated while two of the four on the right hand side also deflated.

He said that the tyres were designed to deflate during such high energy braking to avoid them bursting. Such landings were usually accompanied by smoke or dust as the tyres become warm and deflate.

As a precaution, the passengers and crew were deplaned through the aircraft's evacuation slides.

Eight passengers suffered injuries and were taken to hospitals accompanied by Cathay Pacific airport staff.

The aircraft entered into service with Cathay Pacific in 1998 and it had been through all the checks and servicing procedure recommended by its manufacturer, Airbus.

Litt mer her:

An Airbus A330-300 with roughly 322 aboard operated by Cathay Pacific Airways as Flight CX780 out of Indonesia for Hong Kong touched down safely, but at about 230 knots, after experiencing malfunctions with both engines, Wednesday. In dealing with the problem, the crew intentionally idled the first engine, but the other became fixed at 70 percent, according to Cathay Pacific. The pilots landed fast and used the brakes to successfully stop the plane on the runway, but a small fire broke out at the main landing gear as tires failed. (The jet's normal touchdown speed is close to 135 knots.)

Interessant. De landet i 230 kts med en motor stående fast på 70%, var det slik å forstå? Høres ikke bra ut.
