Pegasus Airline Flight 8622
This chilling drone image captures the aftermath of Pegasus Airlines Flight 8622’s failed landing at Trabzon Airport. The aircraft missed the runway and dangerously skidded off a cliff, stopping just short of plunging into the Black Sea. The sight of a full-sized passenger plane balanced on the muddy slope is both surreal and terrifying. Thankfully, everyone on board survived, but the incident caused the airport to shut down for several days as investigations unfolded.
This photo serves as a dramatic reminder of the razor-thin margin between a routine landing and a potential catastrophe. The muddy incline and precarious position of the aircraft show how unpredictable nature can be—even in controlled environments like airports. It also highlights the increasing role drones play in documenting major incidents with clarity and perspective that ground-level shots simply can’t provide.
