Presumably awaiting a man with a spanner and screwdriver to fix it. Perhaps they should send for The Mechanic of DSA fame?A321 9H-WZC still on stand at LBA

Any update on this? Its been here 5 days now.It’s been towed to stand 19 this afternoon after being sat on stand 14 since it came in.
Was watching Blue Sky Live yesterday and someone said it’s got issues with nose landing gearAny update on this? Its been here 5 days now.
Due to our TDZ! 🤣😁It had a hard landing. Engineers are attending again today.
Like others have said it had a hard landing but has been on a taxi test aswell as for engine runs this afternoonAny update on this? Its been here 5 days now.
Weather related? Or just a bad landing. It's not as though the weather has been bad, although we have had a couple of stiff breeze crosswinds. Nothing significant.It had a hard landing. Engineers are attending again today.
As far as I know it's purely down to the way it was "placed" onto the runway.Weather related? Or just a bad landing. It's not as though the weather has been bad, although we have had a couple of stiff breeze crosswinds. Nothing significant.
Airbus A321 G-HLYA is due in from MAN this morning at 1028, so presumably something based has gone tech. What, remains a mystery as FR24 hasn't yet made up its mind which outbound flight is being operated by the A321.
Thought I'd bring these posts in as they contain the relevant detailsFR seems to have sorted itself out now. G-HLYA is due to depart Manchester for Leeds at the revised time of 10.30. It’s then down to operate LS205 to Ibiza departing at 11.25 (approx 2h 30m late). It’s then shown as flying from Ibiza to Luton, Luton to Ibiza before finally returning to LBA, departing Ibiza at 22.05. Nothing shown after that but could well be staying overnight?
JZBL JZBZ are currently techJet2 seem to be having a field day, LS257 to Palma departed almost 3 hours late with G-JZHF, LS447 to Zakynthos departed over an hour late with G-JZBW, LS205 is being operated by A321 G-HLYA
Thought I'd bring these posts in as they contain the relevant details
G-GDFT, G-JZBZ, G-DRTE and G-JZBL are still on the ground from last night - I'd say with reasonable confidence G-GDFT and 2 of the B738s have probably gone tech
To add it been one of the worst days I’ve seen for tech aircraft.JZBL JZBZ are currently tech
GDFT is serviceable and planned to operate the Malaga this afternoon.
G-JZHF went tech this morning then picked up a big slot once it was able to go.
Situation normal!To add it been one of the worst days I’ve seen for tech aircraft.
B733 G-GDFT unfortunately remains tech and didn’t go to plan although they still have it down to operate the Malaga assuming it passed its engine runs
B733 G-GDFM went tech after arriving from Faro this afternoon.
B738 G-DRTU went tech after its arrival from Lanzarote meaning it delayed the Tenerife flight which has now departed using B738 G-JZBI
G-JZBL went tech this morning whilst loading up for Zaknythos. Then its replacement B738 G-JZBW did operate to Zakynthos but returned to stand just as it was preparing to return to LBA and is overnighting there.
B738 G-JZBZ did return to service after a test flight and is currently operating the Bourgas flight
Believe they’re sending B738 G-JZHD from Manchester to operate the 17:45 Palma flight
A321 G-HLYA has also been drafted in to operate the Ibiza-Luton W-leg flight this morning.
Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
No still unserviceable as after its test flight yesterday it was towed over to Multiflight for work thereG-GDFM has just taken off (16.52) as EXS050B on what looks like its fourth test flight. Looks like it could be heading out over the North Sea. Hopefully it’s sorted now.
