• More Than 179 Dead in Devastating Collision
• What Caused the Incident?

The devastating plane crash that occurred on Sunday, December 29, in South Korea continues to shock the world as more details are revealed.

The tragedy, which left 179 people dead and only two survivors, occurred when a Jeju Air flight from Bangkok, Thailand, failed to land properly.

According to initial reports, the front landing gear failed to deploy, causing the aircraft to veer off the runway and crash into a concrete wall.

The impact caused a fire that destroyed much of the plane and complicated rescue efforts.

PASSENGER SENT FINAL MESSAGE BEFORE THE ACCIDENT IN SOUTH KOREA

Amid the grief and uncertainty, a message sent by one of the passengers could shed light on the causes of the crash.

According to News1, a passenger managed to send a message to their family alerting them to problems on the flight.

The message stated that a bird was trapped in what appeared to be the plane’s wing. Before all communication was cut off, the passenger asked their family, «Should I say my last words?»

This final message arrived moments before the tragic crash, leaving their loved ones in shock, who later learned of the collision.

The Jeju Air Passenger Wrote About Birds and a Distress Signal

South Korea’s Ministry of Transport confirmed that the plane’s pilot had sent a distress signal minutes before the impact.

Additionally, reports from the control tower suggest the airport issued a warning about birds in the area just before the plane attempted to land.

The head of the Muan fire department, Lee Jeong-hyeon, stated that several theories about the accident are being analyzed.

This includes the possibility that the plane was struck by birds, which could have affected its landing system.

Two Survivors After the Jeju Air Crash and an Ongoing Investigation

Of the 181 passengers on board, only two survived: both crew members who were rescued and taken to a hospital.

They are conscious and under medical care, although their identities have not been revealed.

Meanwhile, the South Korean government has deployed a team of experts to analyze the airplane’s black box data.

Once this information is obtained, it is hoped that the exact causes of the crash will be determined.
