Frankfurt, Germany (AHN) - A Lufthansa jumbo jet collapsed on its nose at Frankfurt airport when the front landing gear gave way as it was preparing to fly to New Delhi. The 242 passengers and 16 crew members on board the Boeing 747-400 had to abandon the plane after the nose sank down onto a waiting tow truck. "No one was injured. Everyone was able to leave the aircraft via the passenger bridge," an airline spokesperson told IOL news on Monday. The passengers were being put up in Frankfurt hotels on Monday night and were due to take a different flight to New Delhi on Tuesday morning. The original flight - LH760 - had been due for takeoff at 1pm on Monday.
