2010 Mangaluru crash also occurred after plane overshot 'tabletop' runway

The 2010 Mangaluru airport crash involving a Dubai-Mangaluru Air India Express flight happened after the plane overshot the 'tabletop' runway while landing, similar to yesterday's accident in Calicut. The crash had killed 158 of 166 people aboard as the plane caught fire after the accident. Authorities yesterday managed to rescue most of the passengers because the plane didn't catch fire.
