One thing that has not been mentioned anywhere in the thread [that I've noticed anyway] is that the 'crash recovery team' of ground engineers that facilitated getting this aircraft out at LBA were a British Airways team of crash recovery engineers that had travelled up from London on the day of the incident by road with the required equipment to get the aircraft out.
(I hope that all involved in the incident are doing OK.) |

Does anyone heard anything about what actually happened? Was it a mechanical failure causing loss of directional control at the end of the landing run?
ISTR an Aer Lingus Fokker 50 going off piste at LBA in similar conditions aeons ago. Taxiing for take off via the N/S taxiway on the line of the old 01/19 runway when it weathercocked into wind. |
