At the airport of Trabzon, the operation to lift Boeing 737 from the cliff

At the airport of Trabzon, a passenger airliner dropped off the cliff.

The unique operation for lifting the passenger airliner Boeing 737-800 was carried out with the participation of the best specialists and specialized equipment, and the lift itself was made literally in centimeters, as any wrong action could lead not only to the dropping of the aircraft at sea, but to cause casualties among the participants of this operation.

 

 

It should be recalled that on January 14, 2018, a Boeing 737-800 passenger airliner belonging to the Turkish airline Pegasus Airlines, when landing at Trabzon airport, could not stop on the runway in time, which is why it rolled out of its dimensions and hung on cliff, almost hitting the sea, with more than one and a half hundred passengers.

At the moment, the true circumstances of the incident with the Pegasus Airlines aircraft remain unknown, however, experts believe that the failure of the braking system was to blame.
