Damaged wheel on Ryanair jet burst into flames after landing at Manchester Airport
A damaged wheel on a Ryanair jet burst into flames after landing at Manchester Airport, air accident investigators have said. The fire broke out when the Boeing 737-8AS was taxiing into Terminal Three with 167 passengers onboard.
But as the aircraft approached the stand the crew heard a radio transmission requesting the fire service attend an aircraft with 'brakes on fire'. "Realising that the call was about [their plane] the crew immediately completed the parking procedure and shut down the engines," the report states."A 'standby' call was made to the cabin crew and the situation was monitored.
A 'previous occurrence of [a] similar hub failure' found within the airline's fleet during an incident in Spain is being investigated by Spanish authorities, the report says. No further information about this second incident was given.
