Bad landing at Siem Reap airport this morning.
Angkor Sky flight ZA484 reportedly blew out four tyres on landing in Siem Reap airport early this morning. The plane was on a direct flight from Wuhan, China with 122 passengers aboard. The incident was due to a technical problem where the brakes did not release. No one was injured.

Re: Bad landing at Siem Reap airport this morning.
About 7 years ago i had a very interesting conversation with a technician who serviced planes and he told me that the reason i had flown on an old Thai airways jet to go to Bangkok was because that plane was leased by AirAsia since the aviation authorities would not allow AirAsia planes to fly into their airspace. The reason was because their maintenance schedules didnt meet their strict requirements.

Re: Bad landing at Siem Reap airport this morning.
Yep. And Thailand has been in trouble with IATA for years now with regulatory and safety practices. And most flights going to/from Thailand are run by Thai AirAsia which is under Thai aviation regulators. So it doesn't really sound legit.Raybull wrote:Funny, cause Thai Airways is known for terrible maintenance aswell.IraHayes wrote:About 7 years ago i had a very interesting conversation with a technician who serviced planes and he told me that the reason i had flown on an old Thai airways jet to go to Bangkok was because that plane was leased by AirAsia since the aviation authorities would not allow AirAsia planes to fly into their airspace.

Worse case scenario, maybe they don't want to leave Cambodia and we're stuck with them.cptrelentless wrote:Now there's 122 Chinese people who are not coming back to Cambodia again.
