MUMBAI, Oct. 12 (Xinhua) -- Air India Express Boeing 737-800 flight crashed down the Trichy airport runway at 250 km per hour on Friday, struck the poles at the end of the runway, rammed into the perimeter wall but still managed to fly.

Surprisingly, none of the 136 passengers and crew on-board IX 611, an Air India flight bound for Dubai, were injured.

But pictures of the jet after it made an emergency landing in Mumbai show severe damage.

A large gash along the belly of the jet and multiple perforations on the engine nacelles and parts of the fuselage clearly indicate that the passengers on-board the jetliner had a miraculous escape, reported the NDTV.
