The tragic crash of Jeju Air's flight 7C2216 may take weeks for investigators to find the exact cause, but early reports suggest a potential bird strike.
Jeju Air's flight 7C2216 was filled with holidaymakers traveling from Bangkok to Muan in South Korea, resulting in 179 fatalities out of 181 on board.
The Boeing 737-800, a widely used aircraft with 4,400 in the global fleet, has become the workhorse for many airlines, including major US and European carriers.
Witnesses reported the aircraft stopped broadcasting tracking data shortly before landing without its gear extended, leading to the tragedy as it slid and burst into flames.
