After an apparent normal landing on runway 32, the nosegear ran into the hook net barrier whilst doing a 180-degree U-turn at the end of runway resulting in a tire burst and a subsequent complete failure of the nosegear. An emergency evacuation was initiated in which 11 passengers were hurt. Damage to the aircraft is being considered as repairable although the aircraft sustained heavy damage to its foreward underbelly aft of the nosegear bay doors. At the time Mashhad Airport was in a noise-abatement configuration with reciprocal useage of runway 32 for landings and 13 for take-offs.

After landing on runway 27 in rainy conditions, when the A340 was about to turn right into the high-speed taxyway "N8" (second last exit) it ran off paved ground and all gear became stuck in mud. All passengers left the aircraft via mobile airstairs. Due to continous downpour, the airport was forced to close runway 09/27 for more than 75(!) hours until the A340 could be removed in the morning of Sep. 05th. Damage to the aircraft is considered to be minor.
