Biography
Plane crash of Turkish Airlines at Amsterdam's Schipol Airport. Turkish Airlines Flight TK 1951, with 127 passengers and seven crew members, crashed just short of the runway. A faulty altimeter appeared to be at least part of the cause. Although the plane broke into three pieces, it did not catch fire. Nine people were killed, six were critically injured and 80 sustained other injuries. The plane took off from Istanbul at a local time 6:22 AM according to the BBC.
