minus-squareManucodelinkfedilink6•5 months agoIs there any historical example of a plane crashing twice? (interpreting “crashing” liberally to include any landing where something went wrong)
minus-square@CameronDev@programming.devlinkfedilink12•edit-25 months agohttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Air_Lines_Flight_123 Had a tailstrike (tail hit the runway during landing), was repaired, 7 years later the repair later failed in flight and fully crashed. Dunno if a tailstrike counts as a crash though.
