Vietnam B789 at Munich on Aug 15th 2026, late rotation, tailstrike, runway overrun, tyre damage

Inadvertent application of brakes by crewmember?

Possibly and more likely…causing enough heat to blow a fuse plug followed by the low pressure light they received after becoming airborne especially since they retracted the gear normally.

I would think they’d also get a brake overheat message and/or see it on the tire pressure/brake temp system schematic page if that were the case.

Interesting look at the accident flight (top) versus the same flight the day prior doing a normal departure

Everything more or less matches until B10, 135knots ish ....then nothing.

Parking brake set is an automatic takeoff config warning once power is advanced to the takeoff setting so that would be unlikely…assuming system worked as designed.

I mean… LAPA B737 had no flaps set for takeoff, the TO config going off the entire takeoff roll and the pilots still sent it…







Not saying that’s what happened (flaps seem set correctly). Just that an alarm going off is no guarantee that all crews will hear it and/or abide.
