Matevz was forced to make unexpected landing

Matevz was forced to make unexpected landing at Taiyuan International Airport due to icing

He was experienced with unexpected icing - a phenomenon where an aircraft begins to experience ice build-up on the fuselage, wings, engine nacelles and tail assembly. He immediately looked for an appropriate airport with a field length long enough and safety landed.

 

Matevž je moral prisilno pristati

Zaradi nepričakovanega nabiranja ledu na krilih letala, je moral Matevž prisilno pristati na mednarodnem letališču Taiyuan.

Matevž je med letom opazil, da na krilih, propelerju in tudi kabini letala nastaja led.

Do zaledenitev pride, ko letalo leti v hladnem in vlažnem področju, kjer ni nobene vidljivosti, zaradi nabiranja ledu na krilih pa letalo izgubi aerodinamične lastnosti. Zaradi varnosti se je odločil za zasilen pristanek na večjem letališču. Počakal bo nekaj ur, če se bo vreme izboljšalo, bo poizkusil nadaljevati pot. Če ne bo izboljšanja vremena, bo nadaljeval z letom jutri.
