A nasty accident in Turkey this afternoon at Istanbul's Sabiha Gokcen International Airport. It is reported that a Pegasus Airlines Boeing 737-800 aircraft had a tail strike on landing during heavy rail leading to the aircraft leaving the paved area and breaking up. There are no reports of any fatalities.
Sound familiar? Back in 2018 a Pegasus Airlines was involved in a similar incident at a different airport when an aircraft left the runway shortly after landing and ended up down a cliff. There were no fatalities.
