Ryanair plane rolls backwards into airport building

Ryanair is seeking an investigation into how one of its aircraft was damaged after it rolled backwards and crashed into a building at Ciampino airport in Rome on Wednesday.

A rear stabiliser on the Boeing 737-800 jet sustained extensive damage after the aircraft rolled into the building at the airport.

The incident happened on the same day that workers from Groundcare, the company responsible for Ryanair’s ground handling requirements, walked off the job in a row over pay.
