Freee!! Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 According to the story nobody died and most could walk away, so it was less than a good landing but still decent ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Spice Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 This is the 3rd similar accident in 2 years with this company. Remember the one hanging over a cliff last year ? It was them. Maybe time that the Turkish govt clips Pegasus' wings ? https://www.pprune.org/rumours-news/629449-pegasus-accident-saw-just-reported.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Three people were killed and 179 were injured when a plane skidded off an airport runway in Istanbul and split into three pieces." That story was edited. At the time I wrote my post, there were no deaths reported and the number of injured was also substantially lower. From what I now know, the pilots should be prosecuted for manslaughter and the airline should have its training thoroughly inspected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
