On Saturday, Panic broke out on a passenger jet when it skidded off the runway at a Turkish airport and plunged down the side of a cliff overlooking the sea, according to BBC. The Pegasus Airlines Boeing 737-800 with 168 passengers and crew had flown from Ankara and landed at Trabzon on the Black Sea coast late on Saturday.
Everyone on board was evacuated safely, provincial governor Yucel Yavuz said. No injuries were reported. The Provincial Governor also added that the cause of the accident is being investigated. The report quoted State-run Anadolu news agency as saying there was panic on board as the plane went out of control.
Pictures show the jet lying nose down on a muddy slope just metres from the water's edge. A passenger, Fatma Gordu was also quoted as saying "We tilted to the side. The front was down while the plane's rear was up. There was panic, people shouting, screaming."
Mr Yavuz further disclosed that the airport was closed for several hours while investigations took place.
