3Novices:Blue Air plane overruns snowed-over runway in Romania

BUCHAREST // An airplane belonging to low-cost company Blue Air overran a snow-covered runway while landing in the north-west Romanian city of Cluj. Nobody was injured.

David Ciceo, director of Cluj airport, says the Boeing 737, carrying 116 passengers and crew members, landed early Thursday. He says the aircraft had not run out of fuel or had made an emergency landing.

He says the runway was covered with wet snow with “average” conditions for braking.

Civil aviation security investigators are probing the incident.

Local city council official Calin Tuluc said the airport would be closed for several hours, pending an inquiry.
