A Delta Airlines Boeing 767-300, registration N182DN performing flight DL-415 from Madrid,SP (Spain) to New York JFK,NY (USA) with 192 passengers and 11 crew, blew the outboard aft right hand main gear tyre on departure from Madrid's runway 36L, the tyre debris penetrated the right hand wing causing damage to electrical (e.g. transponder) and hydraulic systems as well. The crew climbed to safe altitude, performed an alternate gear extension and returned to Madrid for a safe landing on runway 32L about 25 minutes after departure. While taxiing towards the apron, the aircraft veered left off the taxiway and came to a stop. The passengers disembarked via stairs and were bussed to the terminal. There were no injuries, the aircraft received substantial damage.

 

Debris off the tyre and wing was recovered from the departure runway.

 

Passenger Ana Arias tweeted that they thought a right hand wheel exploded just as the aircraft was rotating for takeoff, a panel on top of the right hand wing came off. The aircraft returned to Madrid for a safe landing but veered off the taxiway.

 

The airline confirmed a tyre blew on takeoff, the hydraulic problem is under investigation.

 

On Dec 11th 2013 the CIAIAC reported the aircraft blew a right aft tyre during takeoff from runway 36L, debris of which impacted the lower side of the wing and causes a hydraulic failure preventing the gear from being retracted. The aircraft landed on runway 32L. After landing the aircraft vacated the runway via the last rapid exit taxiway to the left and stopped in a grassy area about half way between runway 32L and Terminal T4 with all 8 main tyres being flat. The aircraft received substantial damage to the right hand wing including the loss of internal and external components as well as to both engines due to ingestion of stones during the excursion from the taxiway.

 

On Jan 12th 2015 Spain's CIAIAC reported in an interim report, that the investigation is nearly complete, the draft report is being written for comment and authorization. The CIAIAC stated: "During the takeoff run the aft right wheel on the right main landing gear broke and the debris from the tire detached and struck the lower wing, forming a hole and also rupturing important components in the hydraulic system, which in turn detached and struck the upper surface of the wing, causing one of the outer panels to detach. The damage to the hydraulic system made it impossible to retract the landing gear. The crew detected this immediately during the climb and declared an emergency, returning to the airport as instructed by ATC and landing on runway 32L at 12:05. At the end of the landing run the aircraft left the runway via the last rapid-exit taxiway on the left side (L3), coming to a stop outside said taxiway in a grassy area located halfway between the end of runway 32L and terminal T4."

 

 

 

 

Se debatía con el reventón del 737 en Las Palmas, y sí, puede atravesar el plano y dañar la hidráulica del avión.
