Overview

• After violent turbulence over Bavaria, a Ryanair Boeing 737-800 carrying 179 passengers and six crew made a precautionary landing at Memmingen Airport on June 4.
• Nine people were injured — eight passengers and one crew member — and three were hospitalized, including a two-year-old child with bruises.
• The Luftamt Südbayern refused permission for an onward flight, so Ryanair arranged buses to transport passengers to Milan.
• The same storm system caused severe damage in Ulm, leaving several houses uninhabitable.
• The German Weather Service (DWD) is now investigating whether a tornado occurred during the storm.
