"...states that there was damage to the nose gear shock absorber upper support anti-rotation lugs. The indications to the flight crew are L/G SHOCK ABSORBER FAULT and WHEEL N/W STRG FAULT. The Airbus bulletin also provides flight crew guidance for dealing with these fault indications..."
Any of you bus drivers know if this type of damage would be visable during preflight and if so, what it might it look like? My company gave up having mechanics push the aircraft back. There are days I feel lucky to have the nose gear still attached after some of the "ramper" pushes. Any ideas if this could be towbar/pushback related damage?
