The management of Air Peace Limited, on Wednesday, disclosed that its Airbus A320 was significantly damaged on the ground on Tuesday when a Nigerian Aviation Handling Company, NAHCO, baggage conveyor belt vehicle crashed into the aircraft's engine after completion of Flight P47427 from Kano at the Murtala Muhammed Airport Terminal 1, MMA1, Lagos.
The management stated that passengers have safely disembarked before the crash.
According to Air Peace Limited Management, "the ground handling equipment belonging to and operated by NAHCO tore into the aircraft and, as such, rendering the aircraft totally unserviceable."
The Management stated that the unfortunate incident has significantly impacted the operation of the company, noting that the aircraft was rostered to operate multiple flights within their network over the coming days. "Consequently, several scheduled services will experience delays, while some may regrettably be cancelled as we work to mitigate the disruption through fleet adjustments," the Management declared. .
Air Peace, accordingly, apologized to their esteemed passengers whose travel plans may be affected by the incident.
