Delta aircraft makes emergency landing at GT airport
(CNS): Emergency crews at Owen Roberts International Airport were on full alert Saturday lunchtime in anticipation of the return of Delta Airways flight DL352 Atlanta that was suspected to have a fire on board. Sources tell CNS that the aircraft landed safely with more than 150 passengers and crew who were all unhurt. However, on the ground emergency procedures had been activated. Although there has not been any official confirmation from civil aviation it is understood that the crew reported smoke in the aircraft cabin to local aviation officials. When it landed the plane was evacuated safely and the runway re-opened this afternoon. The flight left around six hours later after the airline sent a replacement aircraft.
