Dash 8-100 heavy landing

Tabnabs · 2010-09-15 15:01:23

Happened at Sandnessjøen in Northern Norway this morning, 3 passengers, 4 crew, no injuries. The cause is not clear, but suspected heavy turbulence from surrounding mountains just before landing.

I see they're an SAS company. I thought SAS got rid of all their Dash 8's a couple of years ago due to reliability problems.

That was the Q400 model only. A series of incidents with the landing gear. They have subsequently gone and ordered the Q400NG however!
