The Deputy Director General of Myanmar’s Civil Aviation Department, Ye Htut Aung said, “They tried hard twice by flying around twice and asked to check whether the nose wheel dropped or not.”
He added that it was a technical fault and that why “they had to land with the back wheels… The pilot could land it skillfully.”
Ye added that there were no casualties in the incident.
A passenger of the Myanmar Airlines Flight UB-103, Soe Moe said, “Smoke came out a little when we landed… All passengers are okay.”
The Myanmar National Airlines have launched a probe for the incident and are going to send engineers to Mandalay to check out the aircraft.
