A LATAM jet departing Italy for Brazil suffered a tail strike on takeoff, in what can only be described as a rather strange incident, as reported by The Aviation Herald. At 1:26PM local time, the aircraft took off from Milan Malpensa Airport’s runway 35L. However, while rotating, the jet struck its tail on the runway.

#J28243 took off from Baku at 03:55 UTC time and was flying to Grozny. That's a lot of damage to the tail and the E190 was Embraer's first with a FBW elevator. That crew did an amazing job under the circumstances. Jon Ostrower (@jonostrower) December 26, 2024 Why would anyone try to take down an Azerbaijan Airlines plane?
