Airline: Turkish Airlines
Flight No.: 1951
Aircraft: Boeing 737-8F2
Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands
Fatalities: 9:135
The aircraft [TC-JGE], on a flight from Istanbul, crashed into a field about a mile short of runway 18R at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport while on approach. The 737 was at about 400ft on the ILS approach when, for reasons yet to be determined, the airspeed decayed to the point that the stick shaker activated. Full power was applied, but the aircraft stalled, and fell into the ground with very little forward momentum.
