Bengaluru An Air India flight reported a tailstrike incident while landing in Bengaluru airport today, officials said. The aircraft that came from Delhi landed safely and the crew and passengers disembarked normally, officials said. A tailstrike happens when the airframe at the rear of the aircraft comes in contact with the runway during takeoff or landing. All aircraft are inspected for structural issues following a tailstrike.
Air India flight AI2651, a narrow-body Airbus A321, has been grounded for inspection following the tailstrike incident, officials said. Due to this, its return flight to Delhi has been cancelled. The Tata-owned airline said alternative arrangements are being made to accommodate the affected passengers at the earliest.
