Boeing 727
The Boeing 727 is a midsized, narrow-body three-engined jet aircraft built by Boeing Commercial Airplanes from the early 1960s to 1984.
 It can carry 149 to 189 passengers and later models can fly up to 2700 nmi nonstop.
 Intended for short and medium-length flights, the 727 can use relatively short runways at smaller airports.
 It has three Pratt & Whitney JT8D engines below the T-tail, one on each side of the rear fuselage with a center engine that connects through an S-duct to an inlet at the base of the fin.
 The 727 is Boeing's only trijet aircraft.
Emergency landing
An emergency landing is a priortised landing made by an aircraft in response to an emergency which contains an imminent or on-going threat to the safety and operation of the aircraft or involves a sudden need for a passenger or crew on board to be on land such as a medical emergency. Forced landing
A forced landing is a landing by an aircraft made under factors outside the pilot's control, such as the failure of engines, systems, components or weather which makes continued flight impossible.
 For a full description of these, see article on "emergency landing".
 However the term also means a landing that has been forced by interception. Crash Landing (disambiguation)
Crash landing, or emergency landing, is an unplanned landing made by an aircraft. Advance Airlines Flight 4210
Advance Airlines Flight DR4210 was a scheduled passenger flight which crashed at Sydney Airport on 21 February 1980, killing all 13 people on board the Advance Airlines Beech Beechcraft King Air 200.

LOT Polish Airlines Flight 16 was a passenger flight which made an emergency landing at Warsaw Chopin Airport, Poland, on 1 November 2011 after its landing gear failed to extend.
 All 231 aboard survived without any significant injuries.
 The aircraft involved, a Boeing 767-300ER, was operating as LOT Polish Airlines' scheduled international service from Newark Liberty International Airport, New Jersey, USA, to Warsaw.
 The preliminary report found that a hydraulic leak occurred shortly after takeoff, which resulted in a loss of all the hydraulic fluid that powered the primary landing gear system. Fuel dumping
Fuel dumping (or a fuel jettison) is a procedure used by aircraft in certain emergency situations before a return to the airport shortly after takeoff, or before landing short of its intended destination (emergency landing) to reduce the aircraft's weight.
