There was a problem with the landing gear lever.
A problem with the aircraft’s landing gear lever surfaced during the critical phase of landing. Sources said the ‘automatic mode’ of the system was not working. Due to this technical flaw, the pilots had to use ‘manual mode’ so that the wheels of the aircraft could be opened safely and the landing could be done.
