TOKYO – Another incident involving a Japan Coast Guard (JCG) aircraft occurred at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport on Jan 4, two days after a fatal collision between a JCG aircraft and a Japan Airlines (JAL) plane.
The JCG aircraft was damaged after being struck by a JAL groundwork vehicle, but the plane was unmanned and no injuries were reported, sources said.
The Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Ministry and others are investigating the incident.
According to the sources, the incident occurred at an aircraft parking apron located between an international terminal and Runway B at around 6pm (5pm Singapore time), when a JAL high-lift truck for loading cargo struck the parked JCG aircraft.
The aircraft, an LAJ501 manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace, belongs to Haneda Air Station.
The aircraft, which was not scheduled to fly at the time, was damaged, including a crack on the edge of the wing, and was rendered unable to fly.
The damage is being examined in detail. When the aircraft will be able to resume operations is not yet known.
The ministry will investigate the incident as an accident that occurred in a restricted area of the airport.
The aircraft is equipped with high-precision radar and infrared search systems, and is capable of long-range flights between Japan and the United States.
The JCG has had two planes of this model deployed at the air station since 2005.
