Yup, indeed a prop strike did happen to the port side engine of 9M-SKR, and the engine has been removed and sent for repairs/overhaul. Inquiry was conducted, and it was due to a sudden / strong gust of wind just as the aircraft was touching down. Well, these things do happen and we must be thankful that that was all that happened and no injuries were sustained!
As for the aircraft, she just came out of the paintshop, with a new color scheme......she should be flying again in the near future.
