MANILA - A plane with 47 people on board overshot the runway at an airport in the central Philippines on Wednesday, the airline said.
The Asian Spirit aircraft skidded to the edge of the airstrip after apparently encountering strong winds on landing, company vice president Rodolfo Garcia said.
The 43 passengers and four crew were evacuated from the plane shaken but unharmed, he said, adding that tests would be carried out on the aircraft.
Asian Spirit services domestic routes in the Philippines and is popular among budget travellers, including foreign backpackers travelling to see the scenic countryside. -- AFP
