On 16 December 2008, 20 mn before arriving to Paris airport, which, was shrouded in thick fog, the pilot had to announce he did not have the qualification required to land the plane in these weather conditions.

On 28 May 2008, a Flybe plane coming from Exeter (UK) landed at Charles de Gaulle Paris airport strucking the runway with its tail first.No injuries occured, but the airplane suffered damage to the rear underside of the fuselage. It is probably due to a captain error as he had returned from a sick leave and has felt increasingly tired over the past days.
