LOT flight LO233, a Boeing 737-45D, landed at Brussels Airport runway 25L at 16:29 UTC.
The pilot reported a normal, smooth touch down of the LH MLG first, then a bumpy touch down of the RH main gear. The landing roll was hard to control due to vibrations increasing steadily.
The Tower controller reported heavy smoke on landing and the airplane seemed to be leaning on the right.
