Runway overrun
Ninoy Aquino International Airport
Manila, Philippines
The Xiamen Airlines Boeing 737-800 that overrran Manila Airport’s runway 24 on the night of 16 August 2018. The aircraft made a go-around at 23:40, but fifteen minutes later, during its second landing attempt, it went off the end of the runway. There were severe thunderstorms at the time the incident occurred. Fortunately everyone on board survived.
I doubt the aircraft would ever take to the skies again, though, considering the state it’s in.
