A tire of a Japan Airlines (JAL) passenger plane went flat while landing at Tokyo's Haneda Airport on Thursday, causing a runway at the airport to be temporarily closed, according to Kyodo News.
One of the tires on the left main landing gear of the airplane, JAL Flight 182 from Komatsu Airport, Ishikawa Prefecture, went flat as it was landing on Runway B at Haneda Airport. None of the 65 passengers and crew were injured, public broadcaster NHK reported.
