F27 emergency at Charles De Gaulle today.

Lucky escape for the crew and fortunate that this wasn’t a passenger flight. :angel:

Luckily the landing area underneath was unpopulated! Not mentioned in the first article is that the propellor blade entered the port fuselage and exited the starboard fuselage narrowly missing the starboard engine. 😮
