A serious aviation accident just happened this Thursday afternoon (7). Boeing 757 broke in half at the airport in Costa Rica. A cargo plane belonging to the German company DHL crashed during an emergency landing at the Juan Santamaria International Airport in the city of San Jose.

the aircraft with the registration number HP-2010DAE, Boeing 757-200PCF (freight), fuselage crashed while leaving the runway. According to international press reports, the plane takes off from the airport and heads to Guatemala. However, it had to return after nearly an hour of takeoff due to hydraulic problems.

Data from online tracking platforms shows that the pilots made several orbits in the vicinity and then proceeded to land. After touching down on the runway, the Boeing 757 is seen emitting a lot of smoke from its wheels, apparently indicating that a hydraulic problem may have blocked the plane’s brakes.

The airport runway was closed after the accident. In addition, the incident was announced, the fire brigade went to the scene. Thus, they avoided a possible fire or explosion. Costa Rica fire chief Hector Chavez said two people were on the plane and were in “good health.” Information provided by the AFP news agency.
