The aircraft overran the end of Rwy 36L by approx 200 metres. On Friday departures were using Rwy 36R. Approx 200 metres in front of the aircraft is a steep slope down on to a 13 lane road with the Radisson SAS hotel on the other side, approx 300 metres from where the aircraft stopped. The passengers and crew were very lucky (as were those on the road and in the hotel).
