At 1226:17, following liftoff, the Aircraft pitch angle decreased to positive 7.7 degrees.
Nose-
up input of 8.3 degrees was applied again on the Commander’s sidestick, and the Aircraft
pitch angle began to increase thereafter.
Unknown to the flight crew, during the liftoff, the No. 3 main gear wheel tire struck and
damaged a runway approach light.
At 1226:23, the Aircraft radio altitude passing 140 ft and 12.3 degrees pitch-up angle,
Tower radioed the flight crew for the second time.
At 1226:26, while the Aircraft was at 260 ft above ground level, the Commander responded
to Tower. Thereafter, the flight continued uneventfully with the Copilot as the pilot flying.
In his interview, the Commander stated that after landing at OOSA, the Operator control
center informed the crew about the incident and discussed returning to OMSJ in a scheduled flight.
He also added that he did not observe Aircraft structural damage or marks on the wheels during
the walk-around in OOSA. Accordingly, he decided to return to OMSJ.
The return flight was uneventful, with the Commander as the pilot flying.

Damage to Aircraft
The Aircraft was intact. The No. 3 main wheel tire on the right main landing gear struck a
runway approach light located at the runway-end safety area, which resulted in cuts to the inboard
sidewall and tread (figure 1). The tire remained inflated during the flight. As per the Commander's
statement, he could not notice any cuts on the tire as the cut was on the lower invisible part of the
tire.
