  • Boeing B777 Runway Excursion on Landing

  • A Boeing 777-200 aircraft was landing in rain at the Singapore Changi airport, when its left hand landing gear momentarily departed the paved surface of Runway 02L and went onto the soft grass verge before returning to the paved runway surface. Subsequently, the aircraft taxied on its own to the designated passenger gate. All occupants disembarked unassisted using the aerobridge. There was no injury. All six tyres of the left hand landing gear showed evidence of reverted rubber aquaplaning and three of the tyres were deflated. The forward and aft junction boxes under the landing gear truck were damaged and separated from their attachments.
