Passengers Panic As Dana Air Skids Off Lagos Airport Runway (video) by NairaOcean(op): 1:39pm On Apr 23, 2024
A Dana Air aircraft with 83 passengers and registration number 5N BKI flying from Abuja to Lagos, was on Tuesday, reported to have suffered a runway excursion at the Lagos Murtala Mohammed airport.

A runway excursion occurs when an aircraft veers off the runway in use during the take-off or landing run.

Confirming the incident, Dana Air in a statement, said although the passengers were safely disembarked with no injuries, it had reported the incident to the Nigerian Safety Investigation Board (NSIB) and the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA).

It added that the aircraft had been grounded by the maintenance team, pending further investigation.

The airline also apologised to passengers on the flight, commending their patience, while thanking the airport authorities for their swift response to the incident.

COMRADES, we say thank you Lord that no life was lost, otherwise by now Nigeria/ Nigerians could have been thrown into a deep mourning amidst hardship

I salute the pilots and crew that flew that MD aircraft, they did an excellent job.

It was clear that the nose landing gear failed to eject during landing. Definitely a mechanical fault that will be fixed.

No matter how old, they are workhorses and rugged. Just make sure you carry out the required maintenance and you're good.

Lol very simple explanation.

To be there and experience the landing gear failure is a different matter entirely.

Since you want to get out of this world as fast as possible why don't you go and stand in the middle of an expressway blindfolded or better still get someone to tie up your legs and hands and throw you into a lagoon.

People will just open their mouths wide and be talking rubbish.

The plane probably overshot the runway partly due to the wet surface of the runway undecided
