Emirates A380 with hole in fuselage 🇦🇺

An Emirates Airbus A380 airplane with registration A6-EVK landed in Brisbane, Australia with a large hole in its fuselage. The plane had taken off from Dubai some 13 hours earlier. It is assumed by insiders that the damage occurred on take-off, which meant the plane made the entire flight with this gaping hole.

Flight EK 430 departing on July 1, 2022 did not report any incidents on take-off or during its long flight, but once the plane arrived at Brisbane, it was pretty obvious something had gone wrong. This part of the fuselage however is not pressurized, which might very well be the reason it was not noticed during the entire flight.

There was also slight damage to its nose gear, where a bolt was missing upon arrival. It is unknown however if this is related to the gaping hole in the fuselage. It’s return flight was canceled, awaiting repairs to the aircraft.
