TG 777 emergency landing Dhaka

A Thai Airways plane has made an emergency landing at Dhaka’s Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (HSIA). The Boeing 777 is reported to have veered off the runway during landing but was steered back onto the runway by the pilots. The plane had burst six tyres according to newsinflight.com.

TG321 landed around 12.18pm with 145 passengers – all unhurt, SN Wahidur Rahman, deputy director of Special Air Traffic Control, told The Daily Star. He said, the Dhaka-bound flight coming in from Bangkok informed the traffic control tower of the burst wheel moments before landing (according to the Daily Star).
Last reported, all the passengers were safely evacuated from the plane and the runway was kept shut for three hours, causing delay in take-off and landing of some planes.
