Yesterday, the 26, the a319 operating the ALG/CZL/BSL/CZL/ALG crashed a tire during the landing on rwy16 due to an strong breaking action (strong winds).
As AF & LX just had one wheel each, they had to make a ferry flight with another A319 aircraft from ALG to BSL and way back just to bring 2 tires (because u must change 2 tires when one is flat)...
I don't know many airlines that would have reacted this way for 2 tires...

Today, the 27, it was a flaps problem that delayed the flight for 3 hours...
Bad week-end for Khalifa @ the EAP...
