French authorities on Saturday closed the airport in the southern city of Montpellier after a cargo plane overran the runway and ended up in a lake.
Images showed the West Atlantic Boeing 737 tilting, with its nose in the lake and body perched on land.
The three crew escaped the accident in the early hours of Saturday unhurt, local authorities said.
The prefecture for the Herault region said the airport would be closed to passenger and cargo planes until a specialised firm could take the plane away.
"We will not reopen the airport as long as the aircraft is on the runway and the investigation is not finished," an airport source said.
"After the removal of the aircraft, the runway will also be carefully checked."
Twenty-one commercial flights had been scheduled on Saturday at the airport, which, in peak season, sees up to 197,000 passengers a month. "A technical incident prevents normal operation," said an English message on the airport's website, headlined "closure of Montpellier airport".
The website showed that flights had either being cancelled or diverted to Marseille.

Key findings of Jenkins report
- Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan al Banna, "accepted the political utility of violence"
- Views of key Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, have “consistently been understood” as permitting “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” and “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
- Muslim Brotherhood at all levels has repeatedly defended Hamas attacks against Israel, including the use of suicide bombers and the killing of civilians.
- Laying out the report in the House of Commons, David Cameron told MPs: "The main findings of the review support the conclusion that membership of, association with, or influence by the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered as a possible indicator of extremism."
