NAX52AY, 13,55 local time ESSA was on it's way to land, when a Aeroflot was on the runway suppose to takeoff. NAX pulled the throttles and landed on another runway while Aeroflot taxed off the runway and stopped there. Could it be a tenical error on the Aeroflot? It was quite scary actually.. / Ulf K

Glitch for Boeing Dreamliner at Japan airport
An All Nippon Airways Boeing 787 Dreamliner carrying 249 people had to make a second approach at a west Japan airport before landing, after a glitch forced the pilot to manually deploy the main landing gear.
The first glitch on a commercial flight for the new plane occurred on a domestic route Sunday after a cockpit monitor showed that the landing gear had not fully deployed shortly before landing.

may I recommend you for a job as a tabloid 'journalist'? ;-)
Now for the facts.
Quote "crashed into a boarding bridge"
As one can read in the linked article, the plane was parked. It is very difficult for a parked and motionless a/c to crash into something. As it seems, the bridge hit the wing, not the other way round.
Quote "fortunately nobody was hurt"
Correct. The a/c was empty, as is also stated in the article. So no need to have a bold print red announcement that noone was hurt in an empty a/c.
As for the picture: It does not show the damaged a/c. This picture is used in several articles which simply report that LH added a new A380 destination -- the picture was published at least 5 days before the incident happened.
So please, alpayx, do all readers of this forum a favour and spend some time on research on the incidents before you post half true or even false information.
Thanks and regards

Air France A332 near Paris on Dec 25th 2011, anti-ice problem
PARIS -- An Air France flight from Paris to New York was forced to return to the airport shortly after takeoff for precautionary checks after pilots noticed "a minor problem," Le Parisien newspaper reported Monday.
The Airbus A330 left Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport Sunday evening bound for New York, but was forced to turn back after pilots suspected something may be wrong.
The airline said there was a "minor problem," but did not give further details. The plane took off again "very quickly" with all the passengers on board, AFP quoted a spokesman as saying.
According to the airport's website, the plane took off for the second time shortly before midnight local time, meaning a delay of four hours.
Air France was involved in one of the worst aviation disasters in recent years, when one of its jets crashed into the Atlantic Ocean during a June 2009 night flight to Paris from Rio de Janeiro, killing all 228 people aboard.
