ઇરાનમાં રન-વેના બદલે રોડ પર લેન્ડ થયું પ્લેન...

તેહરાન (ઈરાન)થી રવાના થયેલું વિમાન રન-વે પર ઉતરતા રસ્તો ભટકી જતાં રોડ પર આવી પહોંચ્યું હતું. જેના કારણે ખળભડાટ મચ્યો હતો. સદનસીબે કોઈ જાનહાની થઈ નથી.

તેહરાનઃ ઈરાનના બંદર એ- મશહર શહેરમાં વિમાન રન-વે છોડી રોડ પર આવી પહોચ્યું હતું. જેના કારણે અફરાતફરીનો માહોલનો સર્જાયો હતો. પ્લેનમાં 150 યાત્રીયો સવાર હતાં. સદનસીબે કોઈ જાનહાની થઈ નથી.

મળતી માહિતી પ્રમાણે, કેસ્પિયન એરલાઈન આ વિમાન તેહરાનથી મશહર આવી રહ્યું હતું. વિમાન લેન્ડ થતી વખતે તેના પૈડાં સમયસર ખૂલ્યા નહોતા. જેથી પ્લેન રન-વેના બદલે રોડ પર ધસી ગયું હતું. કેટલાંક લોકોએ આ ઘટનાનો વીડિયો બનાવ્યો હતો. જેમાં લોકો યાત્રિયાને પ્લેનની બહાર કાઢતાં જોવા મળી રહ્યાં છે.

આ અંગે વાત કરતાં પ્રાંતીય હવાઈ મથકના અધિકારીએ મોહમ્મદ રેજાનિયને કહ્યું હતું કે," તમામ યાત્રિકોને સુરક્ષિત બહાર કાઢવામાં આવ્યાં છે." નોંધનીય છે કે, આ પ્રકારની ઘટના 2009માં કજવિન શહેરમાં થઈ હતી. જેમાં વિમાનમાં 168 મુસાફરોના મોત થયા હતાં.

IRAN-PLANE-LD ACCIDENT
Aging Iran airliner crash-lands on highway, injuring only 2
Tehran, Jan 27 (AP) An aging Iranian passenger airliner carrying 144 people crash-landed on a runway and skidded onto a major highway next to an airport Monday, the latest crash in the Islamic Republic as U.S. sanctions bar it from parts or new aircraft.
Authorities said two people suffered injuries in the hard landing of the McDonnell Douglas MD-83 flown by Caspian Airlines in Mahshahr, a city in Iran's oil-rich southwestern Khuzestan province.
Passengers, apparently in shock, calmly exited the aircraft with their carry-on baggage out of a door near the cockpit and another over the plane's wing, video from Iran's Civil Aviation Network News showed. A flight attendant shouted at passengers to calmly walk away as another crew member joined her on the wing.
We crashed. We crashed but we are unhurt, a male passenger said in Farsi in the video. "My hand is shaking.
Provincial airport director Mohammad Reza Rezanian said all of the passengers had been safely taken off the plane, which had been flying a route from the Iranian capital, Tehran, some 610 kilometers (380 miles) northeast of Mahshahr.
The plane carried 136 passengers and eight crew members, authorities said.
It seems that tragedy was narrowly avoided, however, as images from the scene showed the plane had ground to a halt not far from a populated area. The plane also missed traffic on a major highway linking Mahshahr to Imam Khomeini Port.
Iranian state television said the plane involved in Monday's crash-landing came in harder than usual and lost its landing gear as it hit the tarmac.
No landing gear could be seen in pictures of the plane after the crash, but it was not immediately clear if it failed to deploy or somehow collapsed as the jet hit runway at about 7:35 a.m. local time.
The accident is under investigation, officials said.
The McDonnell Douglas MD-83, a single-aisle workhorse introduced in the mid-1980s, largely has been phased out of commercial air travel in the West. American Airlines retired the last of its MD-80 fleet in September.
The plane involved in Monday's crash-landing in Iran, registered as EP-CPZ, was more than 25 years old. It had flown for airlines in France, Canada, the U.S., Colombia, Burkina Faso and Ukraine before being registered to Caspian Airlines in August 2012.
The incident comes as Iran is still coping with the aftermath of the accidental downing of a Ukrainian airliner over Tehran. The plane was shot down by the Revolutionary Guard earlier this month amid heightened tensions with the United States, killing all 176 people aboard.
Maintenance information regarding the American-built MD-83 that crashed Monday was not immediately available. However, Iran has struggled to obtain parts for its aging fleet of airliners amid sanctions by the US.
Under its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, Iran could purchase new aircraft and had lined up tens of billions of dollars in deals with Airbus and Boeing Co., which owns McDonnell Douglas. However, the manufacturers backed away under increasing pressure by President Donald Trump, who ultimately withdrew the U.S. from the nuclear deal in May 2018 and increased tensions with Tehran.
Iran has suffered a series of major aviation disasters in recent decades as its fleet aged. That includes the 2009 crash of a Soviet-era Tupolev Tu-154M flown by Caspian Airlines that took off from Tehran heading to Armenia. Investigators believe an engine failure in plane's tail caused pilots to lose control and smash into the ground at a high speed, killing all 168 people on board. (AP)
