Flights out and into Shannon were cancelled on Feb 12th due to heavy storms with gusts in excess of 80 knots. Shannon Airport recorded a maximum gust of 86 knots at about 14:30L (14:30Z).
On Feb 12th the gusts caused the aircraft to become airborne at the gate and fall down onto the ground again. The left main gear collapsed in that process, the aircraft sustained substantial damage when it came to rest on left wing tip, right main gear and nose gear.
On Aug 24th 2014 The Aviation Herald learned that the aircraft was written off and is being broken up.
