News of Black Coffee’s accident comes just days after a report published on The Aviation Herald website citing a hard landing of a Flybondi B738 at Mar Del Plata on 5 January 2024 due to a “tail strike”.
“A Flybondi Boeing 737-800, registration LV-KJE performing flight FO-5720 from Buenos Aires Aeroparque, BA to Mar del Plata, BA [Argentina], touched down hard on Mar del Plata’s runway 31 at 22:28L [01:28Z 6 January] and suffered a tail strike,” read part of the report.
According to the publication, the aircraft involved in the incident “rolled out without further incident” and there were no reported injuries, despite the aircraft sustaining substantial damage. Argentina’s transportation safety board ruled it an accident and opened an investigation after the airline reported passengers and crews disembarked safely.
