Flight Takes Off with Missing Window Panes, Crew Fails to Notice

An Airbus A321 aircraft took off from London Stansted Airport with four damaged window panes, including two that were missing, after crew members failed to spot the damage caused by high-powered lights used during a filming event the previous day. The damage was discovered after takeoff when passengers noticed increased cabin noise. The plane was turned around and landed safely back at Stansted Airport. The incident is being investigated by the UK's Air Accidents Investigation Branch to understand the risk and how it can be managed in the future.

JetBlue A321 Tips Backwards at JFK Airport

A JetBlue Airbus A321 tipped on its tail after landing at JFK airport in New York. The incident, which occurred on October 22, 2023, is believed to be due to a weight and balance issue, with too much weight in the back of the aircraft and not enough in the front. No injuries were reported, but the aircraft has been taken out of service for inspection. Tipping incidents are rare but more common with the 737-900 rather than the A321.

Asiana subsidiary Air Seoul has also implemented the policy, while Air Busan is still considering it. The incident occurred when a man in his 30s opened an Asiana A321 door during landing into Daegu, causing minor injuries to 12 people.
