While briefly closed, the runway led to the diversion of five Vistara Airlines flights.

The distressing CCTV footage of the crash indicates that the plane made a forceful impact on the ground and the aircraft's body appeared to skid along the ground for a distance.

Other visuals from Mumbai airport depicted overcast skies and the wreckage of the plane situated on the far end of the runway. Initial images showed the wreckage still engulfed in flames, said the report

Emergency services successfully extinguished the blaze.

As per the national aviation regulator, the DGCA, the aircraft involved was a Learjet 45—a super-light business jet with a capacity of nine seats, produced by a subsidiary of Canada-based Bombardier Aviation. It was registered to VSR Ventures, believed to be a real estate development firm based in Bengaluru.

The plane was en route from Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh.
