What happened
During the landing phase at Luxor Airport, an aircraft experienced a mechanical failure involving its landing gear. Specifically, one of the main landing gear assemblies collapsed as the plane touched down on the runway. Following this structural failure, the aircraft continued to move along the ground, sliding for several dozen meters before the motion ceased.
While the incident resulted in the aircraft being damaged beyond repair, there were no fatalities or injuries reported among those on board. The event concluded once the plane came to a complete stop on the airfield.
Findings
Official investigations into the incident have noted that the primary factor was the failure of the landing gear during touchdown. At this time, the specific reason for the collapse of the main gear remains undetermined.
