Narrative:
China Express Airlines Flight G54504 was originally scheduled to take off from Shache Yarkant Airport in Xinjiang at 15:50 and arrive at Kashi Laining Airport at 16:40 on the same day, but the flight later returned and was cancelled. The plane encountered a sudden bad weather at the approach phase. The crew lost the visual reference and decided to go around. During the go-around, the plane touched down abnormally, suspected to have veered off the right side of the runway. Then it returned to the departure airport safely.

During the second approach, a brake degradation waring was trigged. The subsequent inspection revealed the damage to the main wheels of the plane.
