Share this @internewscast.com

A Ryanair flight from London crashed into a barrier on the runway after landing at a Greek airport, leaving the jet’s wing wrecked. 

The Boeing 737 took off from London Stansted Airport on Wednesday morning and experienced ‘severe turbulence’ before making its landing, subsequently hitting a fence at Kalamata International Airport.

Emergency services rushed to the scene, but terrified passengers were told to stay on the plane despite fire concerns. 

Images show the damage made to the plane, with the wing appearing to be torn. 

According to a Ryanair spokesperson, Flight FR6080 landed without incident, but while taxiing, ‘the wing tip made contact with a fence at Kalamata Airport,’ as reported by MailOnline.

‘The aircraft subsequently continued to stand, and passengers disembarked normally.

‘The aircraft then underwent the required inspections and maintenance prior to its return to service’, the spokesperson added.

Passengers onboard the plane described hearing a ‘loud banging sound’ before the collision.

 A source told The Sun that there was severe turbulence during the flight, but it managed to land safely when it landed at the Greek airport.

But suddenly, the plane smashed into the fence, the source said. 

‘You could feel the impact. 

‘There was an announcement that everyone had to wait on the plane for the fire brigade.

‘With the wing damaged the way it was, why wouldn’t you evacuate the plane first?’

‘Everyone was scared – it was the fact they said wait on the plane even though there was clearly a risk of fire.’

The source also mentioned how it was ‘weird’ that there was ‘no signal for seatbelts while there was turbulence’.  

There were no reported injuries. 

The terrifying jet incident comes just a week after the Air India tragedy that left at least 270 dead. 

Last Thursday, after departing from the northwestern city of Ahmedabad, a passenger plane heading for London collided with a medical college, resulting in the tragic loss of 241 out of 242 passengers on board and many fatalities on the ground.

Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, 40, received treatment at a local hospital, where he told doctors that immediately after the plane took off, it began descending and suddenly split in two.

His seat was placed right next to the emergency door, which he says came off when the plane hit the ground. 

Astonishing footage taken near the crash site showed Mr Ramesh with visible injuries hobbling away from the jet before he was rushed to hospital for treatment. 

There were 53 British national on board Flight AI171 when it crashed into a residential area near the airport, as well as 159 nations, seven Portuguese citizens and a Canadian.  

The Indian government has launched an investigation into the fatal crash of the London-bound plane that came down in a residential area of Ahmedabad.

Vishwash was yesterday seen at the funeral of his brother, who was also onboard the doomed flight.
