A Korean Air Boeing 737 Max 8 bound for Taiwan experienced a near-catastrophic failure shortly after taking off from Incheon International Airport this Saturday, plunging 26,900 feet and executing multiple erratic loops before stabilizing.

The plane departed from Incheon International Airport at 4:45 p.m. local time on Saturday, according to a report by Yonhap News Agency.

The aircraft detected an issue with its pressurization system while flying over South Korea’s southern resort island of Jeju.

Data from Flight Radar cited by Business Insider reveals that roughly 50 minutes after taking off, the plane began descending sharply, dropping nearly five miles in 15 minutes. This was a harrowing experience for the 125 passengers onboard. . .
