It took two cranes to recover a crashed plane in Turkey

Transport officials on Thursday recovered a plane that skidded off a runway in northern Turkey.

The Pegasus Airlines Boeing 737-800 had 168 people on board when it skidded off the runway at Trabzon Airport on Saturday.

It stopped at an acute angle only a few metres away from the Black Sea.

All passengers and crew were evacuated and no one was injured.

Turkish media reported the pilots of the plane as telling investigators that the right engine experienced a sudden surge of speed that forced it to swerve to the left.

OMG people in the comments. This happened over 2 years ago. Look at the date of the video.
This is NOT the same plane.
The Turkish plane that crashed a couple days ago broke apart in 3 sections.

Flew with Pagasus in Nov 2019 and had an aborted landing, we thought we were going to crash at Dalaman airport during a rainstorm. there was no announcement at any point. my friend and I got off the plane shaken, wondering 'did we just imagine that?' because no-one on the plane spoke about it. everyone was silent throughout. it was horrifying.

The plane that over shot was on a 9000 ft runway how much longer or bigger do they need to be?? It's the pilots not the runways or planes

Coincidence or what same airline jet again crossed runway and broke into 3 pieces in Turkey last week

[silverbolbo]

Another one happened, this time it broke in half and 3 people already died with same company, it's like what the hell they need to train their pilots better ...

Wow another trashed Boeing plane at the hands of a under qualified pilot.

[ronnieg]

I hope they got the passengers out before lifting it!

[elohimgroup]

Haha, I thought the plane was broken in to three, and why is it being lifted as if nothing happened to it, you people you must be joking
