Ryanair plane wrecks wing in barrier crash while landing in Greece: ‘You could feel the impact’

A Ryanair jet en route from London managed to crash into a barrier — damaging its wing — after touching down at an airport in Greece.

The plane’s wing tip collided with an airfield fence at the Kalamata International Airport shortly after landing on Wednesday afternoon.

Images circulating on social media appeared to show the damaged tip torn apart.

Passengers on board told The Sun they’d experienced “severe turbulence” during the nearly four-hour flight.

“The crew said it was going to be a bumpy landing,” one passenger said.

“But while it was taxiing down the runway towards the red and white barrier at the end, the plane turned and everyone heard this loud banging sound.”

“You could feel the impact,” the flyer added.

The airline said no one was injured in the ordeal.

“This flight from London Stansted to Kalamata was taxiing to stand when the wing tip came in contact with a fence at Kalamata Airport,” the rep said.

“The aircraft subsequently continued to stand, and passengers disembarked normally. The aircraft then underwent the required inspections and maintenance prior to its return to service.”
