Passengers on a Ryanair flight experienced a terrifying moment

Passengers on a Ryanair flight from Liverpool to Dublin experienced a terrifying moment on Sunday afternoon as the aircraft’s nose wheel collapsed upon landing.

Video footage of the incident showed sparks flying from the front wheel of the plane as it came to a stop at Dublin Airport.

Emergency crews rushed to the scene as the airport’s fire service responded to the situation.

Thankfully, no injuries were reported among the passengers and crew onboard the aircraft.

Upon disembarkation, passengers were met by National Ambulance Service personnel and medics who treated one person for shock.

The south runway at Dublin Airport remained closed while the incident was being handled, causing air traffic operations to be restricted.

Ryanair issued a statement after the incident, claiming that the plane had only experienced “a minor technical issue” with its nose landing gear.

The airline confirmed that the passengers and crew had disembarked normally, and that the aircraft would be towed back to the hangar for further inspection by Ryanair engineers.
