How could the skid be serious enough to warrant repairs? Blown tyres?

Maybe inspections, then repairs?

So what actually happened? Not much details...did the plane venture off the runway a bit...or did the engine scrape the runway....

i was seated at 26A..it was the most horrifying experience of my life...during landing it could be felt that the plane swayed left and right as sudden gust of wind hit the airport area..it was made worst when landing heavy downpour and heavy wind push the plane to the right..i could actually see the wing tilted upward before i bent down foreseeing the plane to turn turtle...then a loud bang and it came to a halt...everything which was not secured on the seats were thrown out..we waited for almost an hour before we were allowed to leave the plane right in the middle of the runway..as Senai doesnt have bus passengers were transferred in groups by van..once we were out of the plane only we realized that the right wheel broke as it skidded on the grass and the pilot managed to maneuver it back on the runway

Kudos to the pilots then! (Although they may have been at fault by they probably prevented a disaster too!)

Good to know you're OK.

thanks..i managed to capture a video after we left the plane..not really clear as i used my BB

 

 

the flight left KLIA 40 minutes late from its actual departure time...im not putting the blame on the pilot but the weather was really bad when we landed..im not sure if a go-around would be a better option...

Glad to know everyone is safe!

 

Talking about hitting lights, what actually happened to the China Airlines 737 rotating at the end of the runway, hitting lights sometime ago...?
