Arik Air Planes Collide At Lagos Airport by Kreamie(m): 11:36am On Oct 21, 2015 |
Two Arik Air planes were grounded by the airline after they were involved in a ground collision on the tarmac of the Lagos Airport. Arik Air planes collide at Lagos Airport The incident which occurred on Tuesday afternoon at the General Aviation Terminal of the airport involved two Boeing 737-800NG aircraft. Mr. Ola Adebanji, Arik Air’s spokesman said “Two of our aircraft, Boeing 737-800NG, were this (Tuesday) afternoon involved in a wing-tip brush at the General Aviation Terminal of the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Ikeja, Lagos. “One of the aircraft, 5N-MJP, was marshalled out of the ramp for a scheduled flight when its wing brushed that of another aircraft, 5N-MJQ, parked on the ramp. There were no incidences as the safety of passengers was not jeopardised. We have grounded the two aircraft and are looking into the incident.” Communications Manager for the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), the agency responsible for monitoring and regulating airline’s activities in the country, Mr. Sam Adurogboye said, “It is an incident. Once there is a disruption in a flight operation, which does not involve damage to the aircraft or fatalities, then it is an incident” “Once you operate an aircraft, there are bound to be incidences and the regulation requires that they file the report of any incidence with the NCAA immediately by telephone and putting it in writing thereafter. “So, they are bound to call us within the hour. Our people will now be sent to ascertain the incident and if it is something that is worth maintenance, we will ensure that after it is done, we recertify the aircraft before they return to operation. That is the regulation.” Source: http://www.flynaija.com/arik-air-planes-collide-at-lagos-airport/ |
