Rob W 0 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Jet forced into emergency landing Cardiff International Airport The plane made an emergency landing at Cardiff airport A transatlantic passenger jet has been forced to land at Cardiff International Airport due to smoke in the cockpit. The British Airways 747, flying from New York's JFK airport to Heathrow, London, diverted to Cardiff at about 1230 GMT and made an emergency landing. A Cardiff airport spokesman said fire crews were on standby but the plane landed safely. The cause of the problem in the cockpit is being investigated. There were 17 crew members aboard the plane but just TWO passengers. Peter Phillips, marketing manager at Cardiff International Airport, said fire crews could not find any trace of smoke on the aircraft shortly after the plane landed. The crew and both passengers remained on the aircraft while the initial inquiry was carried out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
