 Accident report. The AAIB published its
report into the incident on 24 January 2007 when
BMI Airbus A319-131, G-DBCI
burst all its main gear tyres on landing at LBIA on arrival from Heathrow. In short,
when the co-pilot, who was flying the approach requested full flap, the
commander inadvertently selected the parking brake on, and did not notice
the error. The co-pilot then repeated his request, but again the error was
not picked up, nor the warning light noticed. There was a very strong
crosswind at LBIA at the time and ATC was transmitting wind speed reports. |
