Druk Air hit in Delhi

A week after one of Druk Air Corporation’s aircraft was hit by a catering unit box in Paro, Druk Air flight KB-202 was hit on the left wing by a tractor towing the passenger ladder in New Delhi, India, damaging the trailing edge of the aileron (the hinged flap on an aircraft wing).
The damaged wing was repaired in New Delhi and the Druk Air plane flew safely to Paro on July 17.
Druk Air engineers carried out the damage assessment and found that it could be repaired locally. It was then processed for repair with the Indian Airlines in Delhi.
The Concord Enterprise, to whom the Druk Air’s ground handling was outsourced, was notified of the incident. No foreign airlines are permitted to have their own ground support division according to civil aviation rules in India.
Thinley Dorji said that Concord would also launch an investigation and submit the report to the Druk Air Corporation within the next few days.
