Leeds Bradford: Wizz Air Flights, New Routes & Schedule Updates

[Aviador]

There is only one thing to blame, the thing it landed on (only joking members)🤣 my guess is a hard landing due to tricky TDZ, bounced then came down on nose wheel or both nose and main wheels at the same time?

Or maybe just non of the above and it simply has a faulty nose wheel after landing. 🙄 Always worst case scenario.

If you come down nose wheel first, the main undercarriage is still airborne meaning the aircraft still has lift. Damage is normally caused where the elevator down command is too hard after the main wheels make contact. Was there any crosswind at the time it happened?

I remember very many years ago the case of an Air Europe 757 landing in Funchal. Seeing that they were running out of landing distance, the PF slammed the nose down forcing the nose undercarriage down so hard, it almost pierced the cabin.

As I recall, it was a slight crosswind but nothing sufficient to cause any landing issues. It was one of those rare, sunny, warm days......

Oh wait!..........

Nothing noteworthy has been reported, and The Aviation Herald confirms there are no indications to the contrary too.

So looks like the route can't sustain 2 carriers. Hopefully it will feature in next Summers Wizz schedules.
