PIA says aircraft did not crash land in Muscat
- Oman: Thursday, February 14 - 2013 at 03:24
Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has said that an incident involving one of its aircraft at Muscat International Airport on Monday was not a 'crash', as the plane's front landing gear collapsed after the touchdown, Times of Oman reported. Although the 737-300 was an ageing 21-year-old aircraft, its landing gear was inspected in December 2012, Mashood Tajwar, General Manager of Corporate Communications, PIA, added. He said the airline has three engineers in Muscat investigating the incident. "As far as damage to the plane is concerned, the left engine, left main gear and possibly the left wing (have been affected) due to the stress of dragging along the runway," a senior official at the airport told the newspaper.
