The nose landing gear of a TUI airlines-operated Boeing 737 collapsed while parked, raising questions about maintenance practices amid ongoing scrutiny of the airline's safety.
Aviation journalist Luk de Wilde called the collapse 'exceptional,' but noted it likely doesn’t pose a significant safety risk, attributing it potentially to human error.
TUI stated, 'We will carry out an in-depth analysis of the situation in consultation with the authorities,' emphasizing that there is no technical problem involved.
The collapse comes at a challenging time for TUI, already facing criticism over safety issues, including incidents involving crew members and prior passenger evacuations.
