American cargo plane's tail sparks during landing
A Boeing 777-300ER cargo plane operated by Kaleta Air encountered an incident during a failed landing attempt at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Airport, where it sustained heavy contact with its tail, resulting in sparks flying. After the aircraft collided with the ground on the first attempt, the crew decided to abort the landing and ascend. During this process, the tail rubbing against the asphalt produced sparks, but no injuries were reported among the crew. The exact causes of the incident are unclear; reports suggest it may have been due to tail strike related to approach angles or aircraft loading factors. The aircraft is currently being inspected to ensure its safety before returning to service.
