In the rotorcraft world the flight manuals give clear definitions of three categories:
Land Immediately
Land as soon as possible
Land as soon as practical
I assume an MD80 FM to have clear definitions.
Accident investigators have closed runways before in order to look for / at debris (CDG & Concorde etc).
Any more detail on what was found??

ZALT,
The story around the airfield is that there were several hundred bits and pieces recovered from the runway and surrounding area.
Bits ranging in size from about the size of your hand to tiny chips.
Speculation is that it was a combustion can or similar that let go.
Can't verify that, it's just rumour and speculation.

my 2 cts? Onur air's pilots seem to be in better shape than their aircraft...
They choose to orbit and get their act together rather than scramble for the tarmac. Good call imho...
