A RYANAIR flight crashed into a barrier and suffered a badly smashed wing after landing at a Greek airport – while terrified passengers were still inside.

The Boeing 737 suffered “severe turbulence” during the flight, before those onboard heard a huge bang as the aircraft landed and collided with a barrier.

Flight FR6080 departing from London Stansted on Wednesday morning landed safely at Kalamata International Airport – moments before the sudden smash.

Emergency services were quickly drafted in, but petrified passengers were told to stay on the plane despite fire concerns following the wing wipeout – leaving those onboard the aircraft “baffled”.

Images obtained by The Sun show extensive damage to the Ryanair plane.

The wing of the aircraft can be seen torn apart by the tough barrier.

A source told The Sun: “The flight took off from London Stansted on Wednesday morning and headed for Kalamata.

“There was severe turbulence during the flight, but it managed to land on the runway at Kalamata International.

“The crew said it was going to be a bumpy landing.”

They added: “But while it was taxi-ing down the runway towards the red and white barrier at the end, the plane turned and everyone heard this loud banging sound.

“You could feel the impact.”

The wing was wiped out by the impact of the barrier crash – as “scared” passengers remained inside – under the instruction of the flight’s crew.

The source continued: “There was an announcement that everyone had to wait on the plane for the fire brigade.

“With the wing damaged the way it was, why wouldn’t you evacuate the plane first?

“Everyone was scared – it was the fact they said wait on the plane even though there was clearly a risk of fire.”

They also said there was already talk about “how weird it was that there was no signal for seatbelts while there was turbulence” on the way down.

The Sun reached out to Ryanair for comment.
