Okechukwu Nnodim, AbujaIn less than 24 hours after a chartered aircraft lost its tyres and landing gear at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, another plane, a commercial aircraft belonging to Dana Air, used its left wing to hit a fence at the facility on Friday. It was gathered that Dana flight, with registration number 5N-DEV from Port Harcourt, brushed the fence while trying to park after it landed at the NAIA. Narrating what happened, a source said, “The Dana plane hit its wing on a fence while trying to park after it landed at the airport. The part that brushed and entered the fence was the left wing of the aircraft. The marshaller was directing the Air Peace aircraft in front of the Dana plane, but the pilot refused to wait for the Air Peace plane and went ahead to park on his own.
