Shocking new reports have confirmed how a Boeing 737 flight carrying a total of 188 people skidded off the runway after making a landing attempt.

The KLM Royal Dutch Airlines was operating the KL 1204 which ended up veering off runway 18 at Oslo Torp Sanderfjord Airport after an emergency landing.

The plane initially separated from Oslo Airport before requiring an urgent need for diversion to Torp Sanderfjord.

Thankfully, the aircraft successfully touched down on the runway but ended up losing control during the landing roll and skidding onto the grass terrain adjacent to the taxiway.

As per reports from Planespotters, the Boeing passenger jet was more than 24 years old.

After looking at the initial reports, there were more details about 182 occupants which included 176 passengers and 6 crew members.

The incident involved one of the KLM Boeing 737-800 that comprises a widely used narrow-body airliner in commercial aviation. This led to both an initial diversion from the Oslo Airport and a subsequent runway excursion which currently remains under investigation.

 

The news comes just hours after a South Korean Airline crashed in the city of Muan after a possible bird strike affected the plane’s landing gear, forcing it to malfunction.
