Manx2 Flight 7100

Fog swallowed Cork Airport on 10 February 2011, hiding the runway from the Fairchild Metro III until it was too late to turn back safely. The crew attempted a third landing in the grey void, but the plane lost control during the go-around and struck the ground. Six people died, including both pilots, while six passengers survived the crash with injuries. The tragedy exposed how poor training and oversight could transform a routine flight into a fatal mistake.
