Plane overshoots runway in central Philippines
AN AirAsia Zest plane carrying 159 people overshot the runway and got stuck in a muddy field at an international airport in central Philippines after landing from Manila in windy weather yesterday, officials said. There were no reports of injuries.
Crew members launched emergency slides to help passengers leave from the Airbus A320-200 after it skidded off the runway in the resort town of Kalibo, said Giovanni Hontomin, who is in charge of AirAsia Zest’s operations.
Initial reports indicated that three of the plane’s tires got stuck in the mud, said Civil Aviation Authority spokesman Eric Apolonio. He said the airport would be closed until the aircraft was towed away.
