A Boeing 737 cargo jet has been recovered from a lake after overshooting the runway on landing in France, forcing officials to call in heavy recovery equipment and mobilize over 100 personnel. Nobody was hurt during the ordeal.

The plane, operated by Spain"s Swiftair for Swedish cargo airline West Atlantic, is reported to have been flying a domestic route in France from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) to Montpellier Airport (MPL) early Saturday morning according to press release. crash has yet been offered.

A brigade of 60 emergency responders rushed to the scene, including water rescue specialists. The crew of three, however, were reportedly uninjured, and the cabin door appears to have remained above the waterline, simplifying the rescue. This left authorities only the plane"s recovery to see through, which meant calling in earthmoving equipment and multiple heavy cranes. Montpellier Airport remained closed to air traffic during the recovery process, forcing Easyjet to cancel its route between Gatwick Airport (LGW) outside London, England, and France.

As of about 6:00 p.m. Sunday, the plane had been recovered from the lake without inflicting any additional damage to its airframe, according to a follow-up press release. Videos uploaded to Twitter show the aircraft being hauled away via heavy truck, likely for investigation, which is underway at the hands of French air safety officials. Operations at Montpellier Airport are planned to resume on Monday afternoon according to @airlivenet on Twitter.

A damaged Korean Air plane remained stuck in the grass at a Philippineairport Monday after it overshot a runway in rainy weather the night before. No injuries were reported among the 162 passengers and 11 crewmembers who escaped from the aircraft using emergency slides.

Dozens of flights have been canceled and Mactan-Cebu International Airport, one of the country’s busiest, remained closed due to the stalled aircraft at the end of its lone usable runway.

The terrifying close call prompted a public apology from Korean Air’s president and a vow from one of Asia’s most prominent airlines to take steps to prevent a recurrence.

“We always prioritize safety in all of our operations, and we truly regret the stress and inconvenience brought to our passengers,” Korean Air President Woo Keehong said in a statement.

The front underbelly of the plane was sheared off and its nose was heavily damaged. The plane lay tipped forward on a grassy area with its front landing wheel not visible and emergency slides deployed at the doors. A ripped-open hole was also visible at the top of the plane near a front door.

Philippine officials said the plane’s remaining fuel would be siphoned off before efforts begin to remove the aircraft at the runway’s end. Authorities were also assessing if the other aircraft that are stranded at the airport could be allowed to fly out safely.

The Airbus A330 flying from Incheon, South Korea, attempted to land twice before overrunning the runway on the third attempt, Korean Air Lines Co. said in a statement.

There"s another use for cooking oil and other byproducts from forestry and farming: powering jets. Airbus wants all its planes running on sustainable jet fuel by the end of the decade, and the fuel is much better for the environment than kerosene, says Amanda Simpson, vice president of research and technology at Airbus Americas.

Passengers started screaming as the plane slid down the runway, crossed a road, smashed through a perimeter fence and then crashed into a sandy embankment, according to the passengers’ accounts. The lights went out, and suitcases and bags popped out of the overhead bins and fell onto passengers.

“We just buckled and bumped,” another passenger, Natalie Morales-Hendricks told NBC’s Today show. “It was like being in a car accident. People were screaming. I was screaming, covering my face and hands, and the next thing you know, we’re at a standstill.”

The flight’s six crew members — who were not seriously injured — helped the passengers make their way off the plane through the emergency exits, and into the rain.“When I came off the aircraft I saw that we were about 10-15 feet from the sea and boulders, so I walked on the beach to the road, where we were picked up by a bus,” Robert Mais, a passenger, told the Jamaican Gleaner newspaper.

Mr. Smith of American Airlines said both engines had come off and that the fuselage had cracked in two places. Passengers told Jamaican newspapers that they could feel rain inside the cabin once the plane came to a halt.

American Airlines would not name the captain and first officer, but said that both were experienced in this aircraft. The captain had nearly 2,700 hours as a captain on the Boeing 737, and the first officer, more than 5,000 hours in that job on that plane, airline officials said.

Airline officials said Tuesday was the first day of work for the pilots in a flight sequence that was supposed to last several days. They took the airplane from Reagan National Airport, across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C., to Miami, departing at 3:37 P.M., seven minutes behind schedule, and then from Miami to Kingston.

Tim Wagner, a spokesman for American, said that he had heard reports that the captain had suffered a minor injury to the arm or wrist, but that none of the cockpit crew or cabin crew appeared to have been seriously injured. “I suspect at minimum they had bumps and bruises like everyone else,” he said.

The airline sent a plane from its Dallas base after midnight, with support personnel. Boeing, which built the plane, also sent representatives to Kingston.

The incident occurred when Korean Air flight KE631 from Incheon, South Korea, landed in poor weather on Mactan Island in central Cebu province late on Sunday, 23 October.

Dozens of flights from the Cebu province were cancelled, including some by Philippine Airlines, which announced more than 50 domestic services would be cancelled.

The airline said following the incident: “Passengers have been escorted to three local hotels and an alternative flight is being arranged. We are currently identifying the cause of the incident.”

Korean Air President Woo Kee-hong released a statement on the airline’s website, assuring that the incident would be thoroughly investigated by Korean authorities and local aviation authorities.

Bali Police Chief Arif Wahyunadi told local TV One that all of the 101 passengers and seven crew members were evacuated from the Lion Air jet and taken into the Denpasar International Airport terminal for treatment.

At least seven of those on-board were taken to Sanglah hospital with head wounds and broken bones. Many passengers emerged from the wreckage with wet clothes and bruises.

According to Reuters, the plane landed in the sea before reaching the airport. It somehow failed to reach the runway, which is 9,842 feet long and juts out into the waters separating Bali from Indonesia’s main island, Java.

Crash investigators are preparing to launch their enquiries, but the cause of the accident is as yet unclear. Wahyunadi said the plane originated from Bandung, the capital of West Java province, and was landing in Bali.

A passenger told the Associated Press: “The aircraft was in landing position when suddenly I saw it getting closer to the sea, and finally it hit the water. All of the passengers were screaming in panic in fear they would drown. I left behind my belongings and went to an emergency door. I got out of the plane and swam before rescuers jumped in to help me.”

Lion Air, the leading budget air carrier in Indonesia, has been beset by controversy. Last year the firm was sanctioned by the Transportation Ministry after pilots and crew were found in possession of crystal meth. In 2004, 25 people died after a Lion Air plane overshot the runway in Surakarta.

The low-cost carrier, which began operating with a single plane in 2000, holds a 45 per cent market share in Indonesia. Last month the company inked a £24bn deal to buy 234 Airbus planes, the French aircraft maker’s biggest-ever order.

A federal investigator says Southwest Airlines pilots on a flight into Burbank, California, overshot the ideal touchdown point and should have aborted the landing before the plane skidded off a wet runway in December 2018.

The findings by an expert in aircraft performance were included in documents posted Thursday by the National Transportation Safety Board, which is investigating the incident.

The plane was stopped by absorbent material shortly before a fence and a street bordering Hollywood Burbank Airport. None of the 117 passengers and crew on the flight from Oakland, California, were injured.

Burbank has relatively short runways, and air traffic controllers warned the pilots of heavy rain at the airport. A small jet before them had aborted a landing.

“Yeah, it’s wet with a tailwind and (expletive) short runway,” said the co-pilot, Peter Van Pelt, according to an NTSB transcript of the cockpit conversation.

The pilots warned passengers to expect hard braking after landing. Welinski told investigators that he set the plane’s automatic brakes to maximum and used thrust reversers, but the plane still didn’t feel like it was slowing after touchdown. He considered turning at an intersection with a taxiway, but the plane only drifted to the left, as if the nose wheel were in a skid.

NTSB specialist John O’Callaghan wrote in a report on the plane’s performance that a tailwind, the landing point and a fast approach speed all contributed to the plane leaving the runway. “However, of the three, the long touchdown is the most significant contributor,” he said.

O’Callaghan wrote that the plane touched down at least 1,000 feet too far down the runway, and under Southwest’s own guidelines, “a go-around (was) the better option.” In a go-around, pilots pull up and circle before making another attempt to land.

Both pilots flew for many years in the military before joining Southwest, had extensive experience and clean records with no previous accidents or incidents, according to NTSB documents.

Oct 24 (Reuters) - A Korean Air Lines Co Ltd (003490.KS) jet with 173 people on board overshot the runway at Cebu International Airport in the Philippines late on Sunday, the airline said, adding that there were no injuries and all passengers had evacuated safely.

The Airbus SE (AIR.PA) A330 widebody flying from Seoul to Cebu had tried twice to land in poor weather before it overran the runway on the third attempt at 23:07 (1507 GMT), Korean Air said in a statement on Monday.

"Passengers have been escorted to three local hotels and an alternative flight is being arranged," the airline said of flight KE361. "We are currently identifying the cause of the incident."

Korean Air President Keehong Woo issued an apology on the airline"s website, saying a thorough investigation would be carried out by Philippine and South Korean authorities to determine the cause.Response crews gather around a Korean Air Airbus A330 widebody flying from Seoul to Cebu, which tried to land twice in poor weather before it overran the runway on the third attempt on Sunday, in Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu, Philippines October 24, 2022 in this picture obtained from social media.

The A330-300 jet involved in the accident was delivered new to Korean Air in 1998, according to flight tracking website FlightRadar24, which said that other flights to Cebu had diverted to other airports or returned to their origin.

The Cebu airport said on its Facebook page that it had temporarily closed the runway to allow for the removal of the plane, meaning all domestic and international flights were cancelled until further notice.

The airline had a poor safety record at that time but sought outside help from Boeing Co (BA.N) and Delta Air Lines Inc (DAL.N) to improve its standards.

A damaged Korean Air plane remained stuck in the grass at a central Philippine airport Monday after it overshot a runway in rainy weather the night before. No injuries were reported among the 162 passengers and 11 crewmembers who escaped from the aircraft using emergency slides.

In 1981, A Korean Air Lines Boeing 747 jetliner overshot the runway while taking off from Manila’s international airport and skidded to a stop at the edge of a major highway. The accident injured more than a dozen of about 350 people onboard.

The plane hit a concrete fence and skidded to a halt on its belly with its front section frighteningly protruding over a busy side road of a key highway south of metropolitan Manila.

During its third landing attempt on runway 22, weather conditions at the airport were still challenging, and the aircraft ran off the runway during landing. The aircraft struck the ILS localizer antenna array for runway 22 after overrunning the end of the runway. The aircraft crossed the runway end at about 80 knots over the ground and came to a stop about 360 metres past the runway end close to the airport perimeter fence.The nose landing gear appears to have collapsed prior to the aircraft hitting the antenna array.

Early reports from the scene do not mention any injuries or casualties. However, aircraft damage is considerable (collapsed nose gear, damage to the nose underbelly and penetrations to the cockpit)and the aircraft might be written off.

The aircraft involved in this landing accident is Airbus A330-322 HL7525, a 24-year-old aeroplane. The aircraft made its first flight in 1998 and was delivered factory fresh to Korean Air in June 1998.Happening Now: A Korean Air A330 has reportedly overshot the runway at Mactan Cebu International Airport.

Both pilots on an Ethiopia Airlines passenger flight fell asleep mid-air and overshot the runway where they were supposed to be landing as air-traffic controllers desperately tried to wake them. The captain and co-pilot of the Boeing 737, which was flying from Khartoum in Sudan to Addis Ababa in Ethiopia on Aug. 15, were only woken when the aircraft’s autopilot disengaged and sounded an alarm. The plane had supposed to have begun its descent to Addis Ababa Bole Airport but was still cruising at 37,000 feet, the Aviation Herald reports. Concerned air-traffic controllers were unable to contact the pilots before the alarm eventually woke the pair. The pilots were then able to make another approach and land the plane without incident. A similar event took place on a flight from New York to Rome in April, ABC7 reports.

A SpiceJet Boeing 737 operating a Jaipur-Mumbai flight overshot the main runway on landing at the city airport on Monday night causing disruptions and raising questions on aviation safety.

Another passenger plane overshot the runway during landing in a city in China but caused no casualties, just hours after an aircraft crashed killing 42 people and injuring 54, officials said.

The plane operated by Tianjin Airlines overshot the runway at the Wuyu International Airport in Nanning city in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Wednesday and slid on to the grassy patches. Several runway lights were broken but there were no reports of casualties or damages to the plane, officials said Thursday. (Watch: Dramatic air crashes)

The accident occurred just hours after an aircraft missed the runway and crashed to the ground in Yichun city in Heilongjiang province, killing 42 people and injuring 54.

Both pilots flying a Boeing 737 for Ethiopian Airlines fell asleep at the controls and missed their landing Monday — before being jolted awake by an alarm when the autopilot disconnected.

Ethiopian Airlines Flight ET343 was supposed to touch down at 6:20 a.m. in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, after a two-hour flight from Khartoum, Sudan, the Aviation Herald reported.

However, air traffic control in Ethiopia’s capital noticed that instead of descending for the final approach, the jet — which has a 154-seat capacity — remained at a cruising altitude of 37,000 feet.

After the plane overshot the runway without descending, the autopilot on board disconnected, triggering an alarm that woke the drowsy aviators, according to the Herald.

The reinvigorated pilots then made a loop and approached the runaway again, this time landing the aircraft safely 25 minutes later, as shown by Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast data.

In May, the Italian news outlet La Repubblica reported that a pilot working for the state-operated airline ITA had been fired for allegedly falling asleep during a trans-Atlantic flight from New York to Rome.

A Delta Air Lines Airbus A330-300 operating flight DL134 between Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) and Amsterdam Schiphol International Airport (AMS) landed short of the runway on Thursday, damaging the pavement and runway lights. No one onboard was injured due to the incident.

The incident took place on Thursday at around 08:00 local time. Delta Air Lines was operating flight DL134 and was directed to land on the Oostbaan (04-22), Schiphol’s shortest runway after a wind advisory was in place across the west of the Netherlands. NL Times first reported on the incident.

As reported, the rear wheels of Delta’s airplane stuck in the grass first ahead of the runway. Delta Air Line undershot the runway, which is not a common occurrence at the airport, a Schiphol spokesperson said to the NL Times.

There was some damage to the landing strip, particularly to the pavement, which was repaired within an hour, and two runway lights remained inoperable a few hours after the incident. Schiphol closed the Oostbaan for about an hour.

The Dutch Safety Board announced on Twitter that it had received information about the incident. “The Investigation Board is on its way to Schiphol for an exploratory investigation after a report of an aircraft landing in front of the runway this morning,” it said on social media. Simple Flying reached Delta Air Lines and Amsterdam Schiphol Airport authorities for comment. The airport wasn’t immediately available. Delta Air Lines said,

We are participating in the Dutch Safety Board’s (DSB) investigation of Delta flight 134 arriving in Amsterdam from Detroit today, January 12, 2023. With safety of our customers and crew as our top priority, we will support the investigation into this event and ensure a full assessment through our Safety Management System in coordination with The DSB.

Delta Air Lines operates 13 daily flights between the United States and Amsterdam. The US carrier has nine routes to this European hub, departing from Atlanta, Boston, Detroit, New York, Orlando, Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle, and Salt Lake City, according to data from Cirium.

The plane is 19.62 years old and was first ordered by Northwest Airlines in 2001. It was delivered in July 2003 to this carrier. Delta received this plane in 2008 after Northwest was merged under the Delta brand. The jetliner has the capacity to carry 282 passengers in a three-class configuration (203 in economy, 24 in economy plus, 21 in premium economy, and 34 in business).

Amsterdam Schiphol International Airport has six runways, of which at least two are active simultaneously at all times, according to its authorities. Five of these six runways serve its commercial operations, and the sixth serves general aviation, private jets, and helicopters. You guessed it right, that’s the 2,014-meter-long landing strip known as the ‘Oostbaan.’

This runway is the remnant of the old Schiphol Airport; it has a northeast-southwest orientation and is only used for commercial operations in exceptional weather conditions. To land in the Oostbaan, aircraft have to fly directly over Amsterdam’s downtown, which is why the runway has severe restrictions. For instance, the Oostbaan can’t be used between 23:00 and 06:00 to avoid noise. Overall, Amsterdam Schiphol restricts take-offs and landings between 23:00 and 06:00 to a single take-off runway and a single landing runway, which are usually runways 18R-36L (Polderbaan, the longest and newest runway), and 06-24 (Kaagbaan).
