Wing Detaches From Airplane Upon Landing
Photographs of the wrecked aircraft show failure of the center wing box’s rear attachments to the fuselage. (www.china.org.cn) और अधिक...Reminds me of my primary instructor calling Wun Wing Lo.
And the after affect from Ho Flung Dung
Aviation week has much smarter reporting on this here: http://aviationweek.com/commercial-aviation/ma60-wing-detaches-pivots-runway-excursion
It seems the failure was a result of a runway overshoot. Landing gear sinking in soft soils put such a moment on the wing the box failed. This may be just as the designer intended. If so, it's rather brilliant when you think about it. If the design calls for the box to be the frangible link, this kind of failure occurs and nobody dies. Note there was no fuel spilled and no fire. If the structure was stronger, the one of the wing mounted landing gear would likely have failed instead with consequent wing damage, fuel loss and fire, not to mention the violent yawing that would occur. Or if the structure were even stronger, the entire fuselage would likely flip like a C-172 in that circumstance. Better to walk away from an ugly wreak...

If that is how the design was intended to function, then why has this happened multiple times in the past year, all under different circumstances?
