Overview
- The aircraft, preparing to depart for Madrid, struck a hangar during pre-takeoff maneuvers at the Talavera la Real air base around 9:15 a.m.
- All 54 passengers were evacuated back to the terminal without injuries and reported moments of uncertainty but no panic or fire.
- Airport sources said the left wing clipped the hangar’s corner, damaging a beam, and the plane sustained limited structural impact.
- Air Nostrum stated the flight was halted and customers are being reallocated to Madrid by taxis, buses, or a later flight.
- Operations were using the military runway due to repairs at Badajoz airport, and outlets differ on whether the affected hangar houses Predator drones or F-5 jets.
