Singapore Airlines Airbus A350 performs go-around at Perth Airport

A Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900, operating flight SQ213 from Singapore to Perth, executed a go-around maneuver at Perth Airport on October 31, 2026. During its final approach, the aircraft, registered as 9V-SHK, appeared to bank sharply to the right, bringing its right wing close to the ground.

The flight crew initiated a standard go-around procedure to reposition for a safer landing. The aircraft successfully landed on its second attempt at approximately 12:30 local time.

Wind speeds of approximately 32 km/h were reported in the area at the time of the incident. While wind conditions are being considered as a possible factor, the exact cause of the sudden tilt has not been officially established by aviation authorities or the airline.
