Miraculous belly landing of FedEx plane in Istanbul

At the Istanbul airport, a FedEx Boeing 767 cargo plane was forced to make an emergency landing due to landing gear problems. The aircraft "nosedived" onto the runway, but thankfully, no one was injured.

The Boeing 767, operating on the Paris-Istanbul route, encountered unexpected issues en route. During its flight, the landing gear became loose, prompting the crew to opt for a "belly down" landing, as reported by Novinite.com. The pilots contacted the control tower at Istanbul Airport to request an emergency landing.

In light of this situation, the airport promptly activated its emergency protocols. Emergency Fire and Rescue teams were sent to the runway, ready to tackle the difficult landing.

Despite the situation's gravity, the crew successfully managed a complex "belly down" landing. The aircraft safely touched down, with neither the crew nor the cargo sustaining any damage. The incident on runway 16R at Istanbul Airport necessitated its temporary shutdown to facilitate the aircraft's removal.

The airport authorities are in the process of figuring out the reasons behind the landing gear's malfunction. An investigation has been initiated to guarantee the safety and efficiency of airport operations.
