A SpiceJet technician at Kolkata's Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Airport died after being caught in the landing gear door of an aircraft while carrying out maintenance work.
The landing door "accidentally shut" trapping 26-year-old Rohit Virendra Pandey. The incident is said to have taken place around 1.45 am.
"The technician was carrying out maintenance on the landing gear of the Bombardier Q400 plane when the landing door accidentally got closed and he got stuck there," PTI quoted an official as saying.
Preliminary reports suggest that Pandey got sucked into the lower end of the aircraft due to hydraulic pressure while he was working on a SpiceJet ATR Aircraft. His body had to be cut out of it.
