Shortly after 9 a.m. local time (2 a.m. Greek time) on Sunday, a Jeju Airlines plane attempted to land at Muan Airport in South Korea, arriving from Bangkok.<\/p>\n

The aircraft failed to deploy its landing gear properly, resulting in a belly landing. It skidded until it collided with a wall and burst into flames, causing the deaths of 179 passengers. Only two people survived the crash.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
