A Dana Aircraft – with enlistment numbers 9J0363 – flying from Lagos to Port-Harcourt has purportedly overshot runway at the Port-Harcourt International Airport on Tuesday night.

A flying machine is said to have overshot the runway when it moves past a predetermined point inadvertently, and this can be because of a lot of speed or that the plane can't stop.

Be that as it may, this specific occurrence was suspected to have been caused by an overwhelming precipitation, which was joined by solid breeze and tempest in Port Harcourt.

No setback was recorded, as all travelers on board were securely cleared from the bramble region where it landed.

Affirming the improvement, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) said nobody managed damage in the occurrence.

“A Dana aircraft numbered 9J0363, flying from Abuja to Port Harcourt airport has overshot the Port Harcourt runway,” Henrietta Yakubu, spokeswoman of the agency, said in a statement.

“The incident was suspected to have been caused by a heavy rain, which was accompanied by strong wind and storm in Port Harcourt.

“No casualty was recorded, as all passengers on board were safely evacuated.”

The airline also confirmed the incident in a statement issued minutes after the incident occurred.

The statement read: “Our flight ​skidded off​ the runway ​at​ the Port Harcourt International Airport, as a result of the ​bad weather situation ​and torrential rain at the time of landing.

“No casualty was recorded and all passengers and crew disembarked safely.

“We commend the Pilot-in -command who was able to control the aircraft to a complete stop, before passengers and crew disembarked. We also wish to applaud the Captain for exhibiting the highest safety standards and handling the situation professionally.”
