AirAsia aircraft skids off Brunei airport | Astro Awani
How hard is it really to get the thing down without going into the mud? Been flying the type for nearly 20 years with countless operators right across the globe, never seen so many stuff ups with this mob.
But the fares are so cheap!

Royal Brunei Ex MEL diverted to Malaysia yesterday. Passengers still at the airport 18 hours later. Now they are telling the passengers their insurance has been cancelled and they can't carry Passengers. Amazing.
Passengers were not provided with accommodation and no idea when this will end. They won't even get the bags out of the hold.
Class act….NOT

It looks very similar to the incident they had in Kuching in Jan 2011. The weather conditions seem to be the same as well. Obviously some difficulty in staying on the runway when it's wet.

Another example of a Stockholm Syndrome sympathizer justifying incompetent pilots.
Are any of us perfect to the point that this could not happen to any of us?? Just asking.

A Frontier Airlines captain decided to buy his entire plane pizza using his own money after some bad weather diverted and delayed their flight.
By: The Associated Press Published on Wed Jul 09 2014
CHEYENNE, WYOMING.—Faced with potentially hungry — and grumpy — passengers, a Frontier Airlines pilot treated them to pizza when storms diverted a Denver-bound flight to Cheyenne, where the plane was stuck for a couple of hours.
Cheyenne Domino’s Pizza manager Andrew Ritchie told The Associated Press that he got a call about 10 p.m. Monday just as he was about to send employees home. Ritchie said the pilot told him he needed to feed 160 people — fast.
“I put my hand over the phone and I said: ‘Guys, you’re coming back,’” Ritchie said, recalling what he told his employees.
In all, Ritchie said his crew made about 35 pizzas and delivered them to the airport, where the driver handed the food off to flight attendants. One of the passengers sent KUSA-TV a picture of flight attendants handing pizza boxes to people.
That number of pizzas is usually what his store handles in an entire hour, Ritchie said. This time, they needed to make them and deliver them in about 30 minutes, he said.

But that didn’t deter his co-workers, Ritchie said.
“Actually, they were super excited. They had a blast. It was a challenge,” he said. “It was definitely one of those ‘challenge accepted’ moments in time.”
Frontier Airlines did not immediately respond to an email from The Associated Press, but KUSA-TV said the company confirmed the episode.
The television station reports that the flight to Denver International Airport, which originated in Washington, D.C., left Cheyenne about 10:30 p.m., shortly after the pizzas arrived.
The flight was one of dozens that were delayed Monday evening because of heavy rain across Colorado.
