Malaysia Airlines plane’s wing tip was DAMAGED and pilots ‘went to SLEEP’

Malaysia Airlines plane’s wing tip was DAMAGED and pilots ‘went to SLEEP’.

The Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 went missing on March 8 2014 en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, carrying 239 people. However, it was previously involved in another incident when the plane’s wing tip was broken off in a runway collision in 2012. There has been speculation that this later caused issues unbeknownst to the pilots.

The Aviation Safety Network said: “A taxiing Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 passenger plane (9M-MRO) , flight MH389, contacted the tail of China Eastern Airlines A340 plane, B-6050, waiting on the taxiway at Pudong International Airport. No one was injured.

“The tip of the wing of the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 was broken off and hung on the tail of the China Eastern Airbus 340-600, according to pictures posted by passengers on the internet.

“The very same plane went missing on March 8, 2014 while on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.”

The wing tip was repaired and the plane went back into service.
