Kathmandu, Nepal: A Buddha Air passenger aircraft skidded off the runway while landing at Bhadrapur Airport on Friday night, in an incident that raised safety concerns but ended with all onboard safe and uninjured, officials and airline sources said. The turboprop aircraft, an ATR 72-500 registered as 9N-AMF, operating as Flight U4-901 from Kathmandu to Bhadrapur, overshot the end of the runway late Friday evening and came to rest on grassy ground beyond the runway surface. According to flight and official data, the aircraft landed at approximately 21:06 local time (about 9:06 pm) and overran the runway by an estimated 165–200 metres before stopping near a creek beyond the runway’s end. All 51 passengers and four crew members aboard the flight were evacuated safely with no reported injuries, Nepal Police and airport authorities confirmed. Jhapa district officials said emergency protocols were activated immediately, and passengers were brought out of the aircraft without harm. Buddha Air issued a statement confirming that the aircraft veered off the runway during landing and dispatched a technical and relief team from Kathmandu to assess the plane and manage operational follow-up. The flight was the last scheduled service on the Kathmandu–Bhadrapur sector for the night and was expected to lay over at Bhadrapur Airport before returning to Kathmandu the next morning. Preliminary reports indicate the aircraft sustained damage during the excursion, although the full extent remains under technical evaluation. Authorities have not yet released a definitive cause for the incident, and investigations will likely examine landing procedures, runway conditions, and aircraft performance as part of the routine safety review.

Idaho, United States: An Alaska Airlines flight 1057 traveling from Portland, Oregon, to Dallas, Texas, was forced to make an emergency landing in Boise, Idaho, after a passenger allegedly assaulted two flight attendants, authorities reported. The passenger has been identified as Tracy Barkhimer, 61, of White Salmon, Washington. According to the Boise Police Department, Barkhimer reportedly exhibited erratic and aggressive behavior mid-flight, leading the crew to attempt to calm her. When their efforts failed, she allegedly struck two airline employees. The flight crew successfully restrained Barkhimer, and the captain diverted the aircraft to Boise Airport as a precautionary measure. Upon landing, police officers met with the crew members, who filed citizen’s arrest affidavits against Barkhimer. She was taken into custody without incident and booked into Ada County Jail on two misdemeanor battery charges. Barkhimer was later released on a $600 bond, with her next court date scheduled for early November. Alaska Airlines confirmed that Barkhimer has been banned from future flights and emphasized its zero-tolerance policy for violence toward airline staff. The airline stated that one flight attendant was assaulted, although police reports indicate that two crew members were involved. Following a 90-minute delay to conduct a medical evaluation, the flight resumed safely to Dallas. Officials said there were no other injuries reported among the passengers, and the airline praised the crew for quickly restraining the passenger and preventing the situation from escalating further.

Michigan, United States: Three people were killed when a small aircraft crashed in a field near Bath Township, Michigan, on Thursday evening. The incident occurred around 5 p.m. near the intersection of Clark Road and Peacock Road, roughly 15 miles northeast of Lansing. According to Bath Township Police and Clinton County emergency officials, the aircraft went down shortly after radar contact was lost. Responding units found the wreckage engulfed in flames. All three individuals on board were pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities have not yet released the identities of the victims, pending family notifications. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) are leading the investigation to determine the cause of the crash. A press conference scheduled for Thursday night was cancelled unexpectedly, reportedly at the direction of the FAA. “We were told by the FAA that the press briefing would not proceed at this time,” a Bath Township official told local station WILX News 10. No reason was given for the cancellation. Reports from CBS News Detroit indicate that the crash site remains under federal control while investigators examine debris patterns and flight data. Preliminary findings have not yet been released. According to trackers AirNav Radar and Flight Radar 24, the plane is believed to have been a Mexican-registered Hawker 800XP (XA-JMR), departing from Battle Creek before losing altitude and crashing. However, this detail has not been verified by U.S. authorities. Residents in the area reported hearing a loud explosion and seeing black smoke billow from the site moments after the crash. “It looked like something out of a movie, just fire and smoke,” one witness told local reporters. The FAA confirmed it is assisting with recovery operations and will issue a preliminary accident report within the coming days. The NTSB is expected to release an initial summary once investigators confirm aircraft type and flight path data.
