Passenger plane aborting takeoff at Eelde (NL)!

Post by arthurv »

original Dutch text:
Op vliegveld Eelde nabij Groningen is een passagiersvliegtuig van Onur Air bij het opstijgen in de problemen geraakt. Het toestel met bestemming Turkije kwam bij het opstijgen niet van de grond en schoot door.

De 140 passagiers hebben het toestel ondertussen kunnen verlaten. Een aantal reizigers is met knie- en rugklachten behandeld. De hulpverleningsdiensten hebben groot alarm geslagen, en worden bij gestaan door de brandweer van de gemeente Eelde.

Volgens ooggetuigen was er bij het opstijgen van het vliegtuig rook te zien. Om 11:30u is een persconferentie.

According to the picture, the MD-88 seems to have sunk through his landing gear while rolling in the soft grass... I guess they're lucky that it was a MD-88 and not a Boing, Airbus or RJ with wing-mounted engines... could have been more catastrophic.

SAB-OM

Here is a topic about the AA89.
Not only the braking blocks needed to be replaced also most of the tires.

I have been on TC-ONP twice (BRU-ADB-BRU), and I have to say that I was extremely disspointed with it's climb performance. In Brussels, it needed the same runway lenght (with maximum thrust) as a fully loaden B747, and the same happened when we took off in ADB.

In comparision: a year later I flew 3 times on an MD82 of AZ, and those climbed like rockets.

Glad that nobody is injured!
