Lufthansa’s Boeing 787-9, registration D-ABPQ, suffered a nose landing gear collapse at a gate in Frankfurt after arriving from Austin on flight DLH 469.
The incident occurred on 2026-06-04. Independent reporting identified the aircraft as the same Lufthansa 787-9 that had operated the Austin-Frankfurt service, while a technical work order from the previous evening had already referenced a fault message related to the landing gear.
One report said two people were injured, but that detail was not confirmed by the other verified material and remains unconfirmed. The available reporting consistently places the event at Frankfurt and links it to the same aircraft and flight.
The case is relevant for Lufthansa’s widebody operations because it involved a long-haul Boeing 787-9 arriving on a transatlantic sector and then encountering a ground-side gear failure at the gate.
