(Mogadishu) An Armenian Antonov An-74 was caught coming into land at Mogadishu after its undercarriage failed to deploy.
The plane a derivative of the An 72 a Soviet/Ukrainian transport aircraft, developed by Antonov. It was designed as an STOL transport able to operate from rough landing strips, with a total of 195 built. Strangely enough a AN 72 crashed in Sudan killing 7 people today as well. But thankfully nobody was injured with the belly-landing in Somalia.Caught on video...plane makes belly landing at Aden Adde International Airport, Mogadishu, Somalia on 9 October 2019 #Mogadishu #Somalia #plane #bellylanding #aviation pic.twitter.com/1zmXAOqLEX— Martin McKayClaassen (@toothdocmartin) October 9, 2019
