The aircraft, operated by Thai budget carrier One-Two-GO, crashed shortly after landing. The passenger jet skidded off the runway during a landing attempt amid heavy rain and strong crosswinds, according to Thai News Agency, Thailand's national news agency. The aircraft burst into flames shortly after impact, an eyewitness said.

Doesn't really matter. This was a standard ops accident. Thunderstorm on the airport and operations continue. Most make it in OK but occasionally someone gets to die. Same old, same old
