After
a long take-off run on runway 34, the aircraft experienced tailstrike before the pilots were
able to gain height and a stable climb-out was achieved. The flight was
cancelled and fuel was dumped for a return to Melbourne. On landing runway
16, the A340 hit the ground hard causing further damage but the aircraft
was able to taxy on its own power to the gate. The runway was closed for
inspections and debris collection. No injuries among passengers and
crewmembers were reported. Damage to the tailskid assembly is considered
as substantial. At the time of the incident local weather was calm and
night visibility was good. According to airport officials, a number of
runway edge lights were also damaged or destroyed. Furthermore, it is
understood the A340 became airborne beyond the end of the runway where its
undercarriage took damage after collision with the localizer antenna. It
was also reported, the tail missed a brick building by only 50 centimeters
(!).
NOTE: in April 2004, an Airbus A340-300 (A6-ERN) of Emirates Airline suffered
damage after it collided with approach lights after it became airborne
past the runway end at Johannesburg, S.-Africa. |

| On
final approach to Legazpi Airport, the pilots noticed that a van was
driving alongside the runway and initiated an immediate go-around meneuvre.
The aircraft then landed safely after its 2nd approach. Tower personnel
reported the ATR came very close to the van until it managed to climb away.
On board the van was the son of the airport director and his girl friend
whos he was giving driving lessons on the runway. According to local
media, the windows of the van were closed and the couple was listening to
music preventing them of realizing the approaching aircraft. The airport
director meanwhile was suspended. |
