The Ghana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) has assured the general public that the Tamale Airport is still “opened for air traffic” despite the Starbow Airline crash Tuesday.

The GCAA has confirmed “that a Starbow airline flight number 110 from Accra to Tamale overrun the runway on landing at the Tamale airport on Tuesday at 08:31.”

There were no casualties involving the crew and 76 passengers on board the British Aerospace 146 jet.

According to the GCAA, it has “dispatched a team of aviation safety inspectors to Tamale to conduct investigations into the cause of the accident.”

The CEO of Starbow James Eric Antwi said: “It is noteworthy that both the crew and the passengers were disembarked safely via the stairs.

“Our sincere concern goes out to all the passengers, friends and families involved. We are still gathering the facts concerning the events. Starbow is cooperating fully with the authorities in charged.

“We’ll inform the media of any significant additional information as soon as it is immediately available.”
