Anyone confirm a high speed reject in a 773, aircraft off the end of the runway, fire trucks, closing a runway at SIN ?

Not sure if it is true. I only know EK432 is seen as gate closed since long ago departing for Brisbane from Singapore. However departure timing has now been pushed back by some 4hrs. The aircraft operating this sector will be operated by A6-EMV. Can this possibly be the one?

I flew back to Singapore last night adn taxiied past the EK B773. It was simply stuck on a taxiway off the runway, but yes lots of firetrucks and also plenty of people inspecting the aircraft.

Here is the crappy pic I managed!

This is the first I've heard of a T7 overrun. Am I incorrect? I would hate to see EK, with their exceptional safety record be the first to record one. Any info would be appreciated.

I was told the EK (A6-EMV) did a heavy landing and burst all the tyres on the Main landing gear. Therefore it was stuck. Which means it landed and got handicapped instead of her performing a RTO when operating EK432 to BNE.

Hmmm. They didn't come out of the A343 @ JNB enquiry too well.

must have looked fairly impressive. im surprised that there arent any other pics of this circulated. i know that its not a major incident or anything, but i imagine that main gear looks a sight!

No long-range visible damage to aircraft, she's currently parked on the remote ramp of Changi, next to an Air Sahara jet whose flight got cancelled.

On pprune the following was said

Quote:
Was a B777-300 EK 432 SIN - BNE last night 16/2 High speed rejected T/0, cleared the runway, Tires deflated on taxi way, All Crew and Pax safe

Looking at the photo above, looks like one of the non-high speed exits from 02C, maybe A1 with the fire fighters in their silver suits.
