Seair plane from Caticlan overshoots runway

A South East Asian Airlines (Seair) Flight carrying 32 passengers from Caticlan, Aklan overshot the runway upon arriving at the Manila Domestic Airport Sunday afternoon.

The plane, with registry number RPC 5328, overshot the grassy part at the end of Runway 13-31. The police said faulty brakes on the aircraft caused the swerve. A bus ferried the passengers and three crew away unharmed and were taken to the Philippine Airlines Clinic near Villamor Airbase in Pasay City.

    I was a passenger of this SEAIR plane seated at the rear end. Just to clarify some items:

    1. We did not overshoot the runway, we actually swerved to the left too early when we touched down.

    2. Yes we did end up in the grassy part but I think it was not the end of the runway. We ended up in a concrete canal the divides the runway.

    3. There were two passengers who had minor injuries not because of the landing but because they had to jump off the emergency exit.

    4. I was the one who opened the rear emergency exit located on the right side of the plane. Most passengers exited the middle emergency exit on the left of the plane.

    5. The main door could not be fully opened since it was being blocked by the grassy part of the canal.

    6. I knew we had a bad landing because of the left swerve of the plane and the smoke, noise, and sparks I saw on the left window when it ended up in the canal.

    7. If people doubt what I am saying, I have pictures to prove it.

    Thank you very much.
