A Pegasus Airlines 737-800 landing at Trabzon Airport in northeastern Turkey had, according to Turkish officials, a "runway excursion incident." Apparently, that means "the plane ran off the runway and nearly crashed into the Black Sea." LOL
Obviously, it's fortunate that the plane did not end up in the water and that nobody onboard was seriously injured. But is saying "the plane ran/skidded off the runway and we have yet to determine how or why" such an unclear, bad or ineffective way to describe what happened that saying it "had a runway excursion incident" is a better way of putting it?
