I like that they noticed how bad the damage was when the mail containers wouldn't fit {boxed}

Another fiery incident, this time a Mexican AF LearJet 45XR reg. 3912 crash landed in a field near El Lencero airport. Although the aircraft made it down intact, the resulting fire is reported to have killed six crew onboard.

As if the weekend wasn't bad enough, a Nigerian AF B350 King Air sent to rescue some students abducted from a boarding school crashed near Abuja airport, killing all 7 onboard. Reports suggest the pilot(s) managed to steer the stricken plane away from a heavily populated area before crashing into wasteland:

All the single ladies...

AAIB's April bulletin contains a report on an incident last July, with a novel twist on screwing up the weight and balance:

The operator had suspended operations for several months due to Covid-19 restrictions, and prior to the incident flight the reservation system from which the load sheet was produced had been upgraded. There was a fault in the system which, when a female passenger checked in for the flight and used or was given the title ‘Miss’, caused the system checked her in as a child. The system allocated them a child’s standard weight of 35 kg as opposed to the correct female standard weight of 69 kg. Consequently, with 38 females checked in incorrectly and misidentified as children, the G-TAWG takeoff mass from the load sheet was 1,244 kg below the actual mass of the aircraft.

Incidentally, SE-MAO in that same bulletin is the ATP excursion that was caught on video and went viral, certainly in the aviation world.

Two aircraft collide while on approach to Centennial Airport (KAPA). A Cirrus SR22 (photo right) operated by Independence Aviation deployed it's CAPS (Cirrus Airframe Parachute System) and landed in Cherry Creek State Park. Two on board, no injuries.

The other aircraft, a Swearingen Metroliner SA226TC (photo left) landed safely at Centennial. One on board, no injuries.

Bird Strike...
(30/May/2021)
A Learjet 31A, owned by Alliance 171 LLC, registration N171AR, suffered a bird strike (bird got ingested by an engine) on takeoff from Buffalo Niagara International Airport (BUF/KBUF), New York, USA.
The aircraft returned and landed safely at BUF.

This incredible photo was captured shortly after 10:30am this morning at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport in Cheektowaga. Local photographer Matt Pulinski happened to be in the right place at the right time to snap this photo of a Learjet encountering a bird strike upon take-off. A large bird collided with the jet, prompting a precautionary emergency landing. Fortunately, no crew members or passengers sustained injuries, but the bird did not fair as well.
According to the FAA, bird strikes account for 94% of all wildlife collisions with aircraft, totalling over 227,000 incidents in the US since 1990, with 842 recorded incidents at BNIA alone. While bird strikes are incredibly common in the aviation industry, it's extremely rare event to photograph, considering the event happens in less than a second and is nearly impossible to predict. That makes this image, quite literally, a one in a million shot.

Another Delta passenger incident last night (supposedly a flight attendant off duty). This one tried to open L1 and met some civilian justice. Seems like he got off pretty easy.

BA B787 Nosegear collapse at LHR

AAIB have now published a Special Bulletin on this one.

The [Dispatch Deviation Guide] procedure required the cockpit landing gear selection lever to be cycled with hydraulic power applied to the aircraft. To prevent the landing gear from retracting, the procedure required pins to be inserted in the nose and main landing gear downlocks. However, the NLG downlock pin was installed in the NLG downlock apex pin bore which was adjacent to the correct location to install the downlock pin. When the landing gear selector was cycled the NLG retracted.

An Airworthiness Directive had been issued, with a 36-month compliance from 16 January 2020, to install an insert over the apex pin bore to prevent incorrect installation of the downlock pin, but this had not yet been implemented on G-ZBJB.

Police drone v Cessna mid-air in Canada:

No injuries, except to the Cessna. I'm assuming it was fatal for the drone.
