PIA flight lands in Lahore with missing wheel, investigation underway, no accidents reported, passengers safe.
A Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) domestic flight landed at the Lahore airport with one of its wheels missing, an official said on Friday (March 14, 2025).
However, no untoward accident was reported due to the Thursday morning incident, the official said.
One of the rear wheels of PIA flight PK-306, which left from Karachi for Lahore, was missing when it landed at the Lahore airport, the official said.
An investigation has been initiated into the incident, a PIA official told PTI.
He added it was being probed whether the aircraft left Karachi with the "missing wheel" or got detached and fell during the take-off.
He said some fragments of the wheel were found at the Karachi airport.
"It appears that one of the rear wheels was in shabby condition when the aircraft took off," the official said.
