An investigation has found that a Tui Boeing 737-8K5 suffered a “catastrophic failure” when it veered off a runway at Leeds Bradford airport last year. Flight TOM3551 from Corfu to Leeds skidded dramatically onto the grass alongside runway 14 while attempting to land during the high winds of Storm Babet on 20 October 2023.

K5 occurred while Storm Babet was unleashing havoc across the nation. The aircraft encountered trouble as it approached Leeds Bradford Airport last October
