[edit] Accidents and Incidents
On June 30, 2009, Yemenia Flight 626, an Airbus A310[1], flight number IY626, departed from Sana'a International Airport in Sana'a, Yemen, en route to Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport. Reportedly with 11 crew and 142 passengers aboard, including 66 French nationals, the aircraft crashed into the Indian Ocean on approach to the destination airport.
While the runway is considered long enough for modern jetliners, landings can still prove difficult because of frequently changing weather conditions and the surrounding mountains of the island. [2]
