Kyrgyz authorities suspend TezJet after MD-83 landing-gear collapse at Bishkek Manas during taxi; investigation underway

Kyrgyz civil aviation authorities have temporarily suspended TezJet operations after one of the carrier’s Boeing MD-83s suffered a landing-gear collapse while taxiing for the runway at Bishkek Manas Airport. The move comes about a month after Kyrgyzstan was removed from the EU’s aviation safety blacklist and follows a probe into the event.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • The landing-gear collapse during taxi at Bishkek Manas triggers immediate operating restrictions on TezJet, highlighting how quickly safety oversight actions can follow an incident.
  • Kyrgyzstan’s recent removal from the EU aviation safety blacklist makes this probe a key test of whether ramp-up in compliance and oversight is holding.
  • The event directly affects an in-service operator (TezJet) and will likely inform grounding/maintenance expectations for similar aircraft/gear configurations while the investigation proceeds.
