Another Accident Involving A Boeing 737

DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — Senegal’s transport minister says a Boeing 737 plane carrying 85 people caught fire and skidded off a runway at an airport near the country’s capital, Dakar, and that 10 people were injured. The minister says the Air Sénégal flight operated by TransAir was headed to Bamako, in neighboring Mali, late on Wednesday with 79 passengers, two pilots and four cabin crew. The injured were being treated at a hospital. A Malian musician says he “saw my life flash before my eyes” and that he thought about his mother, wife and kids. He also described “complete panic during the evacuation” out of the plane.
