The World’s Largest Aircraft Has Crashed [Video]

The Airlander 10, also referred to as the flying bum, has crashed.

A combination of a plane and an airship, it’s the world’s largest aircraft and hit the ground “less than 24 hours after a successful test flight,” reports BBC.

But it wasn’t necessarily flying.

According to witnesses, it fractured in two at the airfield in Bedfordshire,UK, after it “broke free from its mooring mast, triggering a safety system which deflates the aircraft”, explained its owner, Hybrid Air Vehicles Ltd.

This might give you an indication as to why it’s known as the flying bum:

Two people on the ground suffered minor injuries:

No one was on board, but a female member of staff suffered minor injuries and was taken to hospital as a precaution.

A colleague also sustained minor injuries while dealing with the incident.

“The safety feature is to ensure our aircraft minimises any potential damage to its surroundings in these circumstances,” Hybrid Air Vehicles added.

“The aircraft is now deflated and secure on the edge of the airfield. The fuel and helium inside the Airlander have been made safe.

Guardiola vows to ”kill” Man City team if they fail to win EPL

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has vowed to kill his players if they fail to finish the English Premier League (EPL) season without the title. Guardiola said there was no chance of his team becoming complacent despite their superb form to the start of the season. Manchester City continued their EPL dominance with a 2-0 win at Leicester City on Saturday. City have made a flying start to the season, dropping just two points from the first 12 games and are 8-point lead at the top of the table, scoring 40 goals and conceding just seven. “That is not going to happen because I am their manager,” Guardiola said. “The team, that is not going to happen. I’ll kill them. Complacency doesn’t happen in my teams. “They can play bad, teams are going to beat us, that happens. “But if you see the team, they have the desire to have the ball and play. We are not a team that speculates about absolutely anything. That’s not going to happen.”
