On 20 March 2009, an Emirates A340 aircraft, with 275 passengers
and crew on board, was involved in a tail strike accident during
takeoff from Melbourne, Australia. The aircraft suffered some
damage, but there were no injuries to anyone on board. The
Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) recently released
preliminary findings that indicated that an incorrect weight had
been used when making performance calculations prior to departure.
The calculations were based on a takeoff weight that was 100 tons
below the actual takeoff weight of the aircraft.
