"St Brighid" had burst her port offside tyre on landing from Schiphol. After off-loading passengers on the runway and removal of the wheel, she is towed to the main apron for repair before departure to Dublin Collinstown. EI-AFW is in the initial all-metallic scheme and served EI from March 1954 until January 1960.
