Ah, Google...

VC10 damaged.

MILITARY officials are investigating the cause of an incident on Wednesday afternoon when a VC 10 aircraft was damaged upon landing.
Four port side tyres burst when the VC10 touched down at Mount Pleasant Airfield. The aircraft had been out on a routine flight.
Officials from the base confirmed that the aircraft will not be flying again until they have finished looking into the matter, but say that it is a pretty quick process. The aircraft is reported to have made a safe touchdown while reports that there was damage to the runway have been denied. FIBS
