Plane crash in Turkey

A Pegasus Airlines plane flying into Istanbul’s Sabiha Gökçen International Airport from İzmir, western Turkey, with 185 people skidded off the runway and split apart while landing on Feb. 5, killing three and injuring 180. The crash was blamed on weather conditions at the time — heavy wind and rain.

The incident was the second within a month to involve a Pegasus flight skidding off a runway at that airport; a Jan. 7 flight overran a runway but caused no injuries.
