An IndiGo aircraft encountered a tail strike incident during its landing at
Ahmedabad airport, marking the second such occurrence within a span of five
days. The incident highlights concerns over aviation safety and raises
questions about the airline’s operational procedures. The tail strike took
place as the aircraft made contact with the runway surface, potentially
causing damage to the rear section of the plane. IndiGo, one of India’s
leading airlines, is expected to conduct a thorough investigation to
determine the cause behind the repeated tail strikes. Safety measures and
pilot training are likely to come under scrutiny to prevent similar
incidents in the future.
