An Aeroméxico Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft, registration XA-MFO, sustained damage to its left engine during landing at Mexico City International Airport on April 2, 2025.
The aircraft was operating flight AM363 from La Paz. It landed safely on Runway 23L, and all passengers and crew disembarked normally.
Ground inspection found visible damage to the left engine cowling and components. Maintenance teams began assessing the damage while the aircraft remained grounded.
Investigation and operational response
Aeroméxico had not published a confirmed cause at the time of the report. Mexico’s Federal Civil Aviation Agency was notified and the relevant flight data was secured for analysis.
The runway was inspected after the landing and the airline used reserve aircraft to reduce disruption to its schedule.
Safety findings should be based on the operator and authority investigation, not on preliminary visual evidence alone.
