AMSTERDAM – A Turkish Airlines plane with 134 people aboard slammed into a field while attempting to land at Amsterdam's main airport on Wednesday and broke into three pieces. The airline said everyone on board survived.

Police spokesman Jaap Hage told The Associated Press the 737-800 had crashed in a field next to a runway at Schiphol Airport.

The plane, Flight TK1951, left Istanbul's Ataturk Airport at 8:22 a.m. (0622 GMT) bound for Amsterdam.

In Turkey, Candan Karlitekin, head of the airlines board, all 127 passengers and seven crew members survived the crash. Turkey's Transport Minister Binali Yildirim earlier said there were 135 passengers and eight crew.

Dutch television images showed police and rescue workers swarming around the wreckage and ambulances rushing to and from the scene. Both of the plane's engines were torn off and lay around 100 yards (100 meters) from the remains of the fuselage.

There was no immediate word on what caused the crash, which happened in slightly misty weather with little wind. A reporter for Dutch NOS news said the plane appeared to have hit the field some two miles (three kilometers) short of the runway.

A photo shown by the NOS showed the plane lying in three pieces in the muddy field. It did not appear the plane had caught fire after the crash.
