On August 7, 2020, an Air India Express plane crash landed while attempting to land at the Calicut International Airport in Kerala, India. The plane had been traveling from Dubai with 190 passengers and crew on board. The plane overshot the runway and crashed into a deep gorge, resulting in the deaths of at least 18 people, including the pilot and co-pilot. The cause of the crash is still under investigation, but initial reports from India's aviation regulator suggest that the plane may have been travelling too fast, and the pilots may not have been familiar with the airport's terrain and runway.
