Angry BMIBaby Damaged CWL 22 July 04

Bmibaby had a very unlucky day yesterday at Cardiff Airport, when just before its outbound flight was due to depart an apron vehicle struck the right hand side of the Aicraft just below the Pitot Tubes!

The aircraft is question was G-OJTW 737-300, it was struck with such velocity that it striped paint and shattered the aircraft exterior, Needless to say that the flight was cancelled and a replacment aircraft was sent down.

This aircraft was moved over to just outside the BAMC hangar and was still there this morning (23 July 04) it is apparently being positioned to East Mids today to undergo some exstensive maintenance!!
