Transavia France Boeing 737-800 (F-GZHA, built 2007) operating flight #T03943 from Djerba damaged both its nose gear tires during landing runway 21 at Nantes-Intl AP (LFRS), France with 160 on board. The lower fuselage showed overstress symptoms.

The report said that the two front wheels detached from the landing gear bogies as the plane was landing. Aviation Herald reported the 737 was landing “when both nose tires were damaged, causing the aircraft to roll out on the nose wheel rims.” It then vacated the runway and stopped on the taxiway, clear of the runway but leaving some debris behind. The French aviation accident investigator, the Bureau of Enquiry and Analysis for Civil Aviation Safety (BEA), has launched an investigation into the incident.
