12-11-2007 Lusaka airport, Zambia Panic gripped on lookers and passengers at the Lusaka International airport when a South African airways passenger plane hit into a stationary truck upon arrival from Johannesburg. A ZANIS crew that rushed to scene around 15:00 hours found airport officials and fire service personnel and South African Airways officials inspecting the Boeing 737-700 registration number ZS-SJD. Uncompromising Airport and Zambia Police Officers could not however allow the crew access to the accident site as management had instructed them not to allow the press. According to an eye witness who refused to be identified, the plane was about to park at the apron before passengers could disembark when its left wing that was dented, hit into the stationary utility truck registration number KYZ 207. Efforts to get a comment from South African Airways officials also proved futile as they categorically refused to comment on the matter. The lady official who was found at the airlines office told the crew that the airline does not give information to the press on such matters and referred the news crew back to the airport officials. No casualties were recorded and both airport and airline officials further refused to state the number of passengers on board citing security reasons. This has been the airline policy since the September 11th attack in the United States when two planes were hijacked by suspected Al-Quaeda terrorists hit into the twin towers at the world trade centre in New York.

Here is video of the 'TNT' 737 crash-landing at Birmingham Airport (EGBB) This landing happened after the aborted attempt at Nottingham East Midlands, where the right main undercarrige was ripped off and took out the flaps on the right wing. The aircraft is presently sitting on the unused runway at Birmingham Airport and can be seen from the golf course nearby. (So my cousin informs me!) Filmed by a news helicopter that was in the area and handed over to the local Police and Investigation Team, this is probably the best footage of an incident like this I have seen.

Boeing 737-800 - From Wien to Madeira Funchal

Taiwan-bound China Airlines jet returns to Japan due to speedometer concerns TOKYO (AP) A China Airlines jet bound for Taiwan returned to an airport in southwestern Japan after experiencing trouble with its speed indicators, officials said Friday. There were no injuries or damage. The Boeing 737-800 left for the Taiwanese capital, Taipei, from Saga Airport on the southern Japanese island of Kyushu following repair work after a fracture was found in its fuselage last month, said Transport Official Kenji Toyama. The 70-centimeter (28-inch) fracture was found Sept. 21, weeks after a similar China Airlines aircraft exploded at another Japanese airport. The plane took off from Saga Airport on Friday afternoon but returned about 30 minutes later because there were discrepancies between the speedometers for the main pilot and the co-pilot, Toyama said, adding that the cause of fault was not immediately known. The jet was not carrying any passengers and there was no damage to the plane, he said. Toyama said the plane had been slow to take off, using the entire runway before becoming airborne. One of the eight lamps near the end of the runway was later discovered broken, although it was unclear when the damage occurred, he said. On Aug. 20, a China Airlines Boeing 737-800 that landed at Okinawa's Naha airport exploded in a fireball at a gate seconds after all 157 passengers and eight crew safely evacuated. Investigators found a bolt on the right wing slat had come loose and pierced a fuel tank, causing fuel to gush out and catch fire. The incident was a blow to the Taiwanese airline, which has been struggling to shake its reputation for having a poor safety record. Bugs clogged speed-measuring tubes of trouble-hit China Airlines jet TOKYO, Oct. 9 Kyodo - Insects were found lodged in tubes used to measure the airspeed of a China Airlines jetliner that sustained a speedometer defect last week, according to a recent inspection by the Taipei-based company. Last Friday, the Boeing 737-800 aircraft failed to take off properly and hit a runway light as it was leaving Saga airport in Saga Prefecture for Taiwan. It returned to Saga shortly after takeoff, after the pilot and copilot discovered the readings on their speedometers differed. The company inspection showed that the so-called pitot tubes installed in the nose section of the plane were clogged with bugs and apparently indicated incorrect speeds at the time of incident, leading the pilots to fail to carry out appropriate operations. According to a mechanic of a Japanese airline company, the tubes are usually covered by a lid that prevents foreign substances from entering the tubes. If the tubes become frozen or clogged, they may not be able to perform and and could cause an incident, the mechanic said. The Japanese Land, Infrastructure and Transport Ministry is now examining how the bugs became lodged in the tubes. Most aircraft are equipped with three metallic pitot tubes whose inside diameters are around 6 millimeters. They are designed to measure air pressure gaps among the tubes, and thus determine the plane's speed and altitude. China Airlines has completed repairs of the pitot tubes and other parts of the Boeing 737-800 and plans to have it take off again on Wednesday to return to Taiwan. The incident took place after a 77-centimeter crack was found at the bottom of the tail unit of the same airplane when it arrived at Saga airport on Sept. 21. The Boeing 737-800 is the same model as the China Airlines plane that exploded at Naha airport in Okinawa Prefecture on Aug. 20.

After MORE than 15.000 lives killed... 737 Rudder Design Changes Mandated On Oct. 7, the U. S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued an airworthiness directive (AD) mandating changes to enhance the 737 rudder control system -- expected changes that Boeing announced it was making on September 14, 2000. The modifications amplify three areas: flight crew procedures, maintenance procedures and control system design. These three steps make an airplane with an impeccable safety record even safer. The design changes the FAA mandated today have been made in agreement with a National Transportation Safety Board's (NTSB's) finding that the current rudder system could be made more "reliably redundant." Boeing agreed with that recommendation, and Boeing engineers designed new hardware that provides two separate and independent control inputs to the main power control unit. Within two months of its Sept. 14, 2000 announcement, Boeing issued cockpit procedures to its airline customers that simplify and clarify how to address a condition involving a jammed or restricted rudder. In less than a year, Boeing employed new rudder system maintenance procedures for Initial (737-100/ -200) and Classic 737s (737-300/ -400/ -500) that match procedures for the Next-Generation models (737-600/ -700/ -800/ -900). The redesign has been completed and the shipment of kits to operators is proceeding as planned. The first airplane with the design change installed in-production was delivered January 21, 2003 -- six months earlier than first projected. Boeing is providing wiring provisions ahead of hardware (main rudder power control unit and supporting parts) availability to give airlines more flexibility to incorporate the redesign, and as kits are ordered, Boeing is fulfilling these orders per the operator's schedule. The first wire provisioning kits were shipped to operators of Initial and Classic 737s in February 2002. Operators of Next-Generation 737s began receiving wire provisioning kits in August 2002. Boeing began shipping hardware kits to Next-Generation 737 operators in June 2003 and to Classic 737 operators in July 2003. Operators of Initial 737 models began receiving their kits in September 2003. As of March 2006, 1,051 hardware kits have been shipped to Initial and Classic 737 operators and 696 hardware kits have been shipped to Next-Generation 737 operators. "The 737 is a remarkably safe and reliable airplane," said Carolyn Corvi, vice president and general manager of the 737 program. "It has been the workhorse of the world's jet fleet. Given this record, we are assured that the rudder modifications add to its robustness, and make a safe system even safer." At the end of February 2006, Boeing had orders for 6,160 737s and had delivered 5,009 737s to more than 200 operators in more than 100 countries around the world. A 737 takes off or lands somewhere in the world every 4.6 seconds, and approximately 1,250 of the twinjets are in the air at any given time. http://www.boeing.com/news/feature/737rudder/index.html
