A Turkish Airlines Boeing 737-800 has crashed into a field while attempting to land at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport. There were conflicting reports about whether anyone was killed on the plane, which had 127 passengers and seven crew members. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said one person was killed, according to the semi-official Anatolia news agency, but an airline spokesman and Turkish Transportation Minister Binali Yildirim said no one had died. The aircraft, which originated in Istanbul, Turkey, was trying to land at Schiphol International Airport when it went down at about 10:40 a.m. local time, Dutch airport officials said.
