Japan Air Lines Flight 115 - Accident Animation

On June 2, 1978, while operating Japan Air Lines Flight 115 along the same route, JA8119 bounced heavily on landing while carrying out an instrument approach to runway 32L at Itami Airport. The pilot then excessively flared the aircraft, causing a severe tail strike on the second touchdown. No fatalities occurred among the 394 people on board, but 25 people were injured, 23 minor and 2 serious. The tailstrike cracked open the aft pressure bulkhead. The damage was repaired by Boeing technicians, and the aircraft was returned to service. The aircraft had flown for 8,830 hours at the time of the tailstrike incident.

Fun fact: JL115 had the same registration as JL123 (JA8119) and the tailstrike on the runway made the stabilizer of 123 to break off of the plane. Also R.I.P to anyones relatives that died in the crash 😭
