MH 2718 skidded off runway at Sibu.
|
Looks like the plane was 9M-MXX.
Some photos on this Facebook page, is that hail on the runway or just large raindrops continuing to fall? https://www.facebook.com/penmerahdot...type=3&theater |
sibu as diversion alternate from kuching?
if sibu was in fact an alternate after typical late night bad weather over kuching,
sibu was :mad: or bust, worse weather, worse high ground ,lousy unreliable beacon let down. been there , almost done that.(But i opted for kuching, lucky to get in too, thank God for maxaret) |
What is maxaret?

LMGTFY
From Wikipedia: Dunlop's Maxaret was the first anti-lock braking system (ABS) to be widely used. Introduced in the early 1950s, Maxaret was rapidly taken up in the aviation world, after testing found a 30% reduction in stopping distances, and the elimination of tyre bursts or flat spots due to skids. |
Evac procedure
Have the aft slides to be used on 738 with NLG retracted/collapsed? |
