South Korea launches air safety review after Jeju Air plane crash | BBC News


South Korea’s acting leader has ordered an emergency safety inspection of the country’s entire airline operations after a plane crashed and killed all but two people onboard at Muan International Airport on Sunday.

The Jeju Air Boeing 737-800 burst into flames as it crash-landed at the airport with just two cabin crew members, who were in the rear of the plane, surviving the crash.

Acting President Choi Sang-mok has asked investigators to promptly disclose their findings to bereaved families.

His request also comes as another Jeju Air flight turned back to Seoul shortly after takeoff on Monday, due to an unidentified landing-gear issue.
