South Korea Inspects Boeing 737-800 Fleet After Deadly Jeju Air Crash at Muan, Killing 179
Dec 30, 2024, 08:11 AM
South Korea has initiated a comprehensive inspection of all Boeing 737-800 aircraft operated by its airlines following a deadly crash involving a Jeju Air plane at Muan International Airport. The incident, which occurred on Sunday, resulted in the deaths of 179 out of 181 people on board. The inspection was ordered after the crash, which is believed to have been caused by a bird strike, although the design of the airport has also come under scrutiny. The government's response includes a seven-day national mourning period and a thorough investigation into the crash, with the involvement of U.S. aviation safety officials and Boeing representatives. Additionally, another Jeju Air Boeing 737-800 experienced a landing gear issue on Monday, prompting its return to Seoul's Gimpo International Airport shortly after takeoff.
