Ryanair 737 MAX 8-200 incident: premature braking with anti-skid inoperative led to main-gear wheel lock-up at Bergamo
Italian investigators found the wheel lock-up at touchdown was caused by premature braking during landing when the airplane’s anti-skid system was inoperative. The locked main-gear wheels triggered multiple tyre bursts on the Ryanair Boeing 737 MAX 8-200 at Bergamo following a delay tied to manual speedbrake deployment.
