Subject: TC-IZR/Flight# PGT 361 in EDDF emergency landing ?!?

Hello guys,

anybody has an idea what happened to TC-IZR/Flight PGT 361 apparently arriving from LTFJ. Airplane is standing still standing on 25R and approx. 13 fire trucks are surrounding it with mobile lightning poles being put in place just now.

From what I can see, no one has left the aircraft and more vehicles are arriving

Does someone now more?

Saw the aircraft this evening. It landed on 07R and it appears as though the NLG tires had blown and their direction of travel was ~ 90 deg to the direction of the aircraft. The MLG looked to be intact. Large number of fire crews in attendance but no obvious fire. No sign of slides were deployed last when I left which was approx 1 hr after landing.

Any landing you can walk away from and all......

You mean like Jetblue in LAX 5 years ago?
The article says the Jetblue incident already was the seventh of its kind.

Wow, i'd say they would have fixed that one by now!

Easy fix, stop banging them down so hard!!!

(Suggestion from an engineer to the flight deck)

Then you've never see an airbus doing an autoland...
(talking about positive nose gear landings)

BTW if you read the article in the link, you'll see the rotation had to do with maintenance on the strut (no heavy landings mentioned).
