Aviation: Lufthansa's A380 lands at Munich Airport before the runway
After the incident with the Boeing Dreamliner from Vietnam Airlines, there was another problem in Munich shortly afterwards. An A380 from Lufthansa landed too early.
A Lufthansa Airbus A380 from San Francisco clipped the runway lighting at Munich Airport during a landing approach on Monday, damaging several tires and the ground lighting. All 351 people on board Flight LH459 were unharmed as the plane landed safely and taxied to the apron. The German Federal Investigation Bureau for Accidents in Aviation (BFU) is investigating the incident.
This is the second incident at Munich Airport in a short period, following a Vietnam Airlines Boeing 787-9 that overran the runway on Saturday while taking off for Hanoi.
