Plane Makes Hard Landing At Mitchell International

No One Injured







MILWAUKEE -- A Delta Connection flight had to make a hard landing Monday morning at Mitchell International Airport.
The right main gear blew a tire and landed at 10:17 a.m., according to a representative from Pinnacle Airlines Corp., which owns the jet.
It's unclear what caused the tire to blow out. Mesaba spokesman Joe Williams said there were no reports of debris on the runway. He said an investigation will be conducted.
Flight 2415, operated by Mesaba, originated from Detroit and was heading to Milwaukee.
As a subsidiary of Pinnacle Airlines Corp., Mesaba operates as a Delta Connection carrier under service agreements with Delta.
There were 26 passengers and four crew members on board the flight, Pinnacle Airlines Corp. said.
Passengers were taken into the terminal. No one was injured.
Please note this was a Delta connection flight operated by Mesaba


 
******************** that ******************** where it says it was a delta connection flight operated by mesaba.

where did they buy their tickets?
 
Just goes to show the paint on the tail reflects on the mainline.
 
Maybe its time majors had to have regional partners paint the tails of regional A/C with the regionals corporate logo...

I think United is pushing for this, I think its a great idea to paint the whole airplane. You want someone else to fly a 76 seat jet then mainline? Make them paint the plane and pay for their own fuel.
 
Seriously? You're going to compare this hard landing because of a strut problem to the off roading winter escapade stunt that the Pinnacle CRJ did? Okay.
 
Apparently there was a strut issue that contributed to the tire issue. At least that's the story that's been floating around. Either way, this issue isn't even comparable to the episode that the thread title and OP is referring to.
