EC-JFX Stopped safely on rwy17 after several tires on the right main landing gear collapsed with 330 pax onboard. It approached with gusty crosswinds and the bang of the tires was impressive. Airport was closed for 3h. This incident was followed by a bigger one about one month later when an Iberia A346 overshot the runway and was heavily damaged. [EOS 350D] (mehr von EC-JFX)
