Recommended Posts

ouch guess there will be a few on santa's naughty list will be mortar this story.

A British Airways jet crashed into a building just before take-off at Johannesburg's main airport last night, injuring four airport officials.

The flight, which was on its way to London, veered off the taxiway as it headed to the runway and buried its right wing in the two-storey brick structure.

A spokesman for OR Tambo airport said all 182 passengers were taken off the 747 to spend the night in a hotel.

A statement from the South African Civil Aviation Authority's (SACAA) preliminary report, the B747-400 aircraft was cleared for takeoff on Runway 03L.

It said: 'It was confirmed to the SACAA that the air crew got instructions from the Air Traffic Control to taxi using taxi way B. The crew continued onto taxi way M which is narrower resulting in the aircraft impacting on an office building behind the SAA Technical hangers
