One for the pilots: What would you do with the passengers after the plane had come to a stop; Get them off straight away, possible fire etc. but if they do they might injure themselves on the terrain or fall in to the sea and be eaten by killer sharks; or tell them to stay put while recue teams turn up to evacuate them safely? Probably isn't in the manual I'm guessing.
First job is simply to assess the situation. If there is no fire, then keep everyone in their seats whilst you work out the best way to get them out safely.This is one of those times, that you would just have to use your judgement.

I am pretty sure its company specific and each company has their own rules and SOP.
I did note from the photos there was only one slide deployed (over wing) which makes me think they sent everyone out that one exit and the rear most doors were probably opened later.
From the videos the slides were deployed at the rear so they must have removed them quite quickly after the incident.I did note from the photos there was only one slide deployed (over wing) which makes me think they sent everyone out that one exit and the rear most doors were probably opened later.

Whilst watching the YouTube link above another came up (but may not have been that flight) which showed the aircraft starting to turn left when down to taxi speed but the vid stopped before anything else happened. Looking at other videos it would seem the aircraft has to do a U turn at the end of the runway and taxi back to a turnoff so the left turn would be the start of the U turn.
If the engine 'issue' happened during the left turn then ending up down the bank makes more sense.

...was presumable at taxi speed...
very unlikely it was moving at taxi speed.

Must have been a girl the pilot was trying to impress with a handbrake turn.
Just come back from chatting to a mate who’s a pilot out of Gatwick.Apparently the Turkish airlines are so bad at taxiing and getting lost, once landed they are always taken to the gate by a follow me truck.
No exceptions...........follow that truck.
No suprises. The Turkish airlines always sail close to the wind. They try to run European-quality operations with third-world levels of management and they struggle to hold it together. Fly with TA fairly often, and sometimes Pegasus, and passengers are always moaning about lost bags, damaged suitcases, clumsy landings, etc.
