For more than 9 hours a cut wheel was changed on a Pobeda aircraft.

The news agency Avia.pro received information that the day before, the Boeing 737 airliner, owned by the domestic low-cost airline Pobeda, could not take off on time from Yekaterinburg to Moscow due to the cut of the wheel. It is reported that the flight to Moscow was supposed to be made as early as 11 hours 5 minutes, however, it took the specialists almost 10 hours to replace the wheel, which created a lot of problems for dozens of passengers.

The carrier, in turn, clarified that, despite the long delay, all passengers were provided with drinks and food, while what exactly is the reason for such a long replacement of the cut wheel remains unknown.

Information about whether a wheel cut was discovered after a flight to Yekaterinburg, or before the immediate preparation for a flight to Moscow, is not officially commented on.
