On October 17, 2001, PIA Airbus A300
aircraft registration AP-BCJ was performing airline's flight
PK231 on Islamabad-Peshawar-Dubai route. The right main landing
gear of AP-BCJ collapsed soon after landing at Dubai Airport.
All 11 crew members and 193 passengers remained safe in this
accident. The Airbus sustained damage to its right wing
structure and its engine number 2, which partly broke off the
wing. Due to the serious nature of damage and old age of AP-BCJ
(manufactured in 1983) it was considered un-economical to repair
it. The Airbus was declared a write-off and withdrawn from use
by PIA |
