    NCAA Launches Safety Probe After Max Air’s Kano Airport Mishap

    The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has commenced the safety audit of commercial airline Max Air after one of the planes of the local carrier suffered a tyre burst while landing at the Malam Aminu Kano International Airport (MAKIA) on Tuesday night.

    A source told Channels Television that the audit began immediately after the incident which occurred at 10:57 pm on Tuesday when Flight VM1605, which had earlier departed from Murtala Muhammed Airport (MMA) in Lagos, touched down in Kano.

    The plane suffered a tyre burst, causing panic among passengers but all those onboard were safely evacuated without major injuries.

    It was gathered that the aircraft may have lost its nose landing gear tyre, which led to the incident.

    One of the passengers, Abdullahi Ibrahim, described the moment onboard as tense. He said, “As soon as we landed, there was a loud sound, and the plane shook violently. Some passengers started praying, but the crew assured us everything was under control. We are just grateful to be safe.”

    Efforts to reach Max Air officials for an official statement were unsuccessful as of the time of filing this report. However, aviation experts have assured the public that such incidents, while concerning, are not uncommon in the industry.

    Meanwhile, normal flight operations have resumed at the Kano airport, with authorities working to clear the affected aircraft from the runway.
