Smoke and sparks erupted from the left wheel of Saudia Airlines flight SV 3112 carrying 250 Hajj pilgrims after it landed at Lucknow’s Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport early Sunday, June 15. The aircraft, which had departed from Jeddah, experienced a hydraulic leak, causing the wheel assembly to overheat. The pilot promptly stopped the plane and alerted air traffic control, while the emergency response team quickly controlled the situation using foam and water within 20 minutes. All passengers and crew were safely disembarked with no injuries reported. A video of the incident showing smoke billowing from the wheels went viral on social media.
