Malaysian 380 Loses Nose Wheel

Link to the Av Herald

For those on the dream fleet.

With a few 380s floating around the ME, thought it might be worth putting this on here, might save a WTF moment.

Hope the link works.

Cheers Enos!

Incident: Emirates B773 at Dubai and Newcastle on Sep 10th 2017, burst tyre on departure

For those on the John Dere fleet.

With a few 777s floating around the ME, thought it might be worth putting this on here, might save a WTF moment.

Hope the link works.

Cheers !

OMG Rex!!!!! I am dying here!!!LMFAO

Glad to have the link, but really, a burst tire? There isn't a fleet around that hasn't suffered this mishap.

edit: I had to get on there and "troll" a little. Rare for me, but fun sometimes, especially considering all the crazy comments on there.

In the Malaysian incident the wheels bearings failed and then the axle sheared off - perhaps putting the nose down a bit more softly might help?
