Jeju Air's same type passenger plane has returned due to a defect in the aircraft. It was 6:30 a.m. today. He left Gimpo, went to Jeju, and came back. At that time, according to the in-flight broadcast, there was an in-flight broadcast saying that it would return beyond the landing gear of the passenger plane. I think we need to look at this part.

Professor, what do you think? The same passenger aircraft was returned due to a defect in the aircraft, and there was a mention in the in-flight broadcast at the time that it was more than landing gear. How should I look at it?

◇ Jung Yun-sik
First, since there was an accident, there is a high possibility that even small things can be interpreted from the company's point of view or from the airline operating the same model. Because to prevent further problems. So, there is a possibility that it has returned even though it is actually possible to take some defect measures.

Then there's the idea of continuity of thinking. It keeps happening when an accident happens strangely. And the same defect is called the manufacturing part or lot production. So, there is a high possibility of continuous occurrence because there are such things as defects when materials are produced at that time.

I don't know for sure if it's the cause or if it coincidentally overlapped, but there's a good chance that these accidents will happen not only in Korea but also abroad. So, not only we but also aviation authorities in other countries are expected to be very careful about that.

◆ Anchor
In a way, if you say that the part you don't understand is that you returned more than landing gear, I think this is a part that should be checked before departure. However, for the same reason, he returned this time. Is there no problem with this?

◇ Jung Yun-sik
It is likely that the landing gear was not folded properly if it was done due to a defect in the landing gear. When it's on the ground, it doesn't work, so it looks normal. Then, when you raise it, these defects come out, such as not folding properly or the lever not working. Therefore, it is believed that the return was made immediately to prevent further expansion.
