We hope this will make some people more happy tomorrow: fmc datalink is here. The TSA is an antenna with a two wires inside. If the tail touches the runway during take off, it will take the damage by absorbing Boeing has also decided to remove the tail skid from the 777-300ER as a weight and drag reduction improvement after developing new flight control The accident, which in jargon is called «tail strike», lasted several seconds and lasted a few hundred meters and was recorded by surveillance cameras at the Lombardy airport. Italian investigators have concluded that a 100-tonne error in take-off weight calculations led to a tail-strike involving a L ATAM Boeing 777-300ER The tail skid is the part that provide protection to the aft fuselage. Italian investigators have concluded that a 100-tonne error in take-off weight calculations led to a tail-strike involving a L ATAM Boeing 777-300ER during departure from Milan Malpensa in July 2024, an event later reclassified from a serious incident to an accident due to the extent of the damage.
