SkyAirlines land at EPKS instead of EPPO
The Turkish 737 from Antalia landed yesterday evening
at EPKS militarty base instead of EPPO Poznan airport.
(Flight SHY335)
In the EPPO charts there is a clear statment:
DO NOT MISTAKE KRZESINY aerodrome
13.8 km (7.4 NM) SE OF POZNAN / Ławica
WHEN APPROACHING RWY 29
Unfortunately passengers held for almost 3 hours by military.
For me the incdent is especially shocking,
because I often fly to Zerniki, which is a private airfield
within EPKS MATZ.
Krezesiny is seldom active and lots of private planes frequent
the Zerniki airfield, the pattern is within 25 approach of EPKS.
If this 737 was approaching 25 (so from direction Zerniki),
it could have taken some small plenes with her.
Also the wake turbulence could've killed somebody...
