AgreatMan: Exactly what I was discussing with my colleagues today. In Nigerian, Potholes and avoidable accidents are the only indicators that the runways need fixing. On the other hand, greed won't allow the airline coys carry out any meaningful repairs... Zero maintenance culture. Everything is patch and go till the inevitable happen. |

amaks: In a sane country, this wouldn't even happen and if it does, your last two sentences woukd suffice. My dearest country does not believe in preventive maintenance. |

Originalsly: Exactly, but trust them, no communication to customers until it was around 5pm. And they had to shutdown all operations when weather became very very ok. Meanwhile the plane wasn't actually blocking the runway as it veered off completely. Same plane was supposed to take us back to Abj. Nevertheless, thank God for the pax and entire crew. 1 Like |

Reference: It's really unfortunate. You needed to see their contingency management plan. Ver very poor for a supposed international Airport. Well we will improve by fire by force. Even comedian Gordons was just moving helplessly as we were all together in the mess |

OakPearl: Their contingency management plan was and still really poor.... |

Racoon: Thanks for your concerns Sir. God knows best. But the last minute grounding of entire PHC airspace was actually uncalled for. |

AgreatMan: I'm sure all these countries you just mentioned do have proper house keeping (maintenance crew) - that works 24-7. The question we should ask ourselves - what were the airport management doing to avoid such encounters. We should have personnels clearing the runway of any debris, water-logged area etc. They have the timelines of every flight leaving and coming in. Probably I might be wrong but then good house keeping would surely help since it rained. 1 Like 1 Share |

AgreatMan: What was his point exactly? |

AgreatMan: you are right but you instincts should tell you that, there is a winter tyre and there is Summer tyre. winter tyre are made for snow and Summer are made for high temperature. but in Nigeria we don't have winter nor summer especially in southern part. so no rain tyre until they start designing that, spare me this. also from your previous statement, plane overshoot occur in different part of the world I had experience once in Singerpor so let stop all this it only Nigeria thing. many thing are happening outside Nigeria that you don't know anything about. 3 Likes |

Stallion2019: @stallion2019 meaningful maintenance before meaningful repairs. Their culture? 'If it isn't broken why fix it?' |

Any update if the airport has reopened, the rain this morning appears to be heavy and all over Greater Port Harcourt |

Re: Air Peace Plane Overshoots Runway In Port Harcourt by 9icetoo(m): 8:16am On Jun 23, 2019 |
AgreatMan:There could be a lot of reasons, poor visibility, faulty radar equipment on the part of the airport, faulty instrument landing support equipment on the part of the airport, hydroplaning (this is fact not theory), faulty reverse thrusters on the aircraft, error on the part of the pilots etc. Wait for the AIB to conclude their investigations and give us the result. And FYI, planes have overrun tarmac in the USA, Japan, china, Canada, France and UK. It is not unusual. 1 Like |

Originalsly:Exactly the sort of questions we should be asking. Not to say it won't happen abroad or hydroplaning is a theory.

Jarus:Had same thoughts some days back on my way from lagos back to Abuja on June the 11th. Flight was for 8:15am but was shifted to 2pm (I heard the national assembly guys chartered the plane for their activities in abuja). After boarding, it took them a long time to take off as a result of bringing additional people on board who I'm suspecting were originally for 11am flight. They overloaded that plane and it was the scariest flight of my life. We had difficulty landing. |

Sometimes it's good to appreciate what we have,and I think that Airline deserve some respect looking back to the history of their operation till date, maybe we should continue to pray for more improvement instead, thanks for your concern anyway.quote author=AgreatMan post=79578552]If you think rain or mud is slippery, try snow. There r airports in countries with like Russia, Canada, China, UK etc where they r snow but things things like this don't come up. No excuse for failure o. That plane tire don chop, make them go replace am and resurface d tarmac. They should also check the brakes on the aircraft or perhaps, consider replacing some of their flying Dinosaurs.[/quote] |
