On 25 April 2015 Turkish Airlines flight TK1878 from Milan Malpensa, an A320 (TC JPE), rolled right and stalled about 100 feet above runway 05 at Istanbul Ataturk, striking the runway with its right gear and wing. The crew went around, declared an emergency for the right engine, and landed on runway 35L, where the right main gear collapsed and the aircraft left the runway. All 97 occupants evacuated safely and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair, and the operator blamed turbulence from a preceding Boeing 787, but no official investigation finding was found.
