"After visiting the crash site, Federal Territory Minister Mallam Nasir el-Rufai told the BBC that the condition of the plane was "deplorable", with "bald tyres". "

Shades of Nationair DC8 in Jeddah? Crew deferred bald tire(s)/tyres, bust and caught fire on t/o, upon retracting the gear the rest was history. RIP.
