This past Sunday, on Christmas day, a chartered flight operated by AMC Airlines with 72 passengers aboard flying from Saudi Arabia to the southwestern Pakistani city of Quetta, was forced to make an emergency landing at the Jinnah International Airport (JIAP) in Karachi, Pakistan, after the pilot experienced a problem with the McDonnell Douglas MD-83's nose gear. Several people captured the life-threatening crash landing on film. Amazingly, the experienced pilot was able through skill and a whole lot of luck to bring the plane down without a single person being hurt.
“All the 72 passengers onboard the chartered aircraft which made an emergency landing at Karachi Airport remained safe as luckily the plane escaped any disaster or major damage,” a spokesperson for the Civil Aviation Authority told local newspaper "The News".
