The article below explains in greater detail, but in short, flight JT 633 at Fatmawati Soekarno Airport
was taxiing to take off at one of the runways, when its left wing hit some sort of pole.
In my opinion, things are not looking to well for the Indonesian Airline, Lion Air at the moment, considering what happened north of Jakarta last week. What are your thoughts on the article?
Unfortunately, incidents like this happen all the time in the huge operations of the Aviation Industry, a topic for every incident like this would most definitely clog the thread. I would recommend refraining from posting about subjects like this unless they are very very weird or interesting. Thank you for your contribution to the community though.
Before this gets closed, ima mention that lion air might have safety issues because of flight 610 a few days back.
Its not getting closed, I wanted people to know about this, and to discuss now that this other incident has happened to Lion Air, how will it effect the now struggling airline. In my opinion @Darpan, this topic doesn’t clog up the thread, its your comments suggesting a topic should be closed that clogs up the thread. If you wanted to share that opinion of yours, just PM me Bro.
Huh well lion air does it again 😑
when I was at Atlas I watched an Everts DC6 hit a light pole while taxiing in, the wing walker wasn’t paying attention
I think it’s a new record 2 plane crashes/incidents in 2ish weeks by the same airline
Wow! I wonder if this was the same case. But I have a feeling that a wing walker wouldn’t walk an entire taxiway to do that, it should be up to the pilot to actually stay in the middle of the taxiway.
Lion Air’s turning into Ryanair.
Well, Ryanair has never had a fatality before. So no, I don’t think this is an accurate comparison.
Beat me to it.
Ryanair’s never had a single death involved with their airline, Lion Air does have some, overall, this is another event in the book, this year has been terrible for aviation :(
NO, ITS NOT. It seems like that due to more media coverage, most years have 1000+ fatalities
Wha? What do you mean, I don’t understand what your saying.
I’m sooo sorry but what with Lion air lately
New story with Lion Air? RIP.
It’s been an extremely bad year in the US. The DoD (Department of Defense) says 2018 has killed more Members of the Armed forces ever. (2016 comes in second), we also have had a ton of GA Aircraft and Commercial aircraft go down this year
In terms of accidents amount yes, but fatalities and ‘big’ accidents It’s normal.
There goes Lion Air, doing it again, I am now taking bets on when it will get banned in EU and US airspace again.
As it is an unfortunate truth that there are many small aviation incidences on a daily basis. We ask that you refrain from posting about these on the forum. This is due to the volume of topics we would otherwise get that would clog up the forum and dilute productive discussion of other topics.
