Boeing 737 With 136 On Board Skids On Runway, Falls Into River In US

The mayor of Jacksonville said on Twitter that everyone on board the flight was "alive and accounted for" but that crews were working to control jet fuel on the water.

 

 

The flight was arriving from Cuba, the air station spokesman said.

 

A Boeing 737 commercial jet with 136 people on board slid into the St John's River near Jacksonville, Florida after landing on Friday, a spokesman for Naval Air Station Jacksonville said.

There were no reports of fatalities.

The flight arriving from Naval Station Guantanamo Bay went into the river at the end of the runway at about 9:40 p.m. local time, the air station said.

The mayor of Jacksonville said on Twitter that everyone on board the flight was "alive and accounted for" but that crews were working to control jet fuel on the water.

"The plane was not submerged. Every person is alive and accounted for," the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office said on Twitter.

The sheriff's tweet was accompanied by two photographs showing the plane bearing the logo of Miami Air International resting in shallow water and fully intact.

Miami Air International is a charter airline operating a fleet of Boeing 737-800 aircraft. Representatives for the airline could not immediately be reached for comment by Reuters on Friday evening.

The 737 Max was completely taken down from around the world after the 2 accidents recently (even though they have orders for 5000 Max aircrafts).

Even if Boeing company is shutdown completely and goes bankrupt and all 737's are totally BANNED, I can still fly the 737 at anytime - forever, LOL 😃
