Photo Comment

Malév Flight 262 was a flight from Budapest Ferihegy International Airport to Thessaloniki International Airport. On 4 July 2000, the Tupolev Tu-154, HA-LCR, used on this flight performed a gear-up touchdown during the landing at Thessaloniki, skidded on the runway, but was able to take off and land normally after a go-around. The aircraft damaged beyond economical repair and remained at Thessaloniki airport, withdrawn from use.
