Damaged plane lands safely
A plane with faulty landing gear has landed at Kent International Airport at Manston.
The EU Jet was on its way from Gatwick Airport to Manston on a repositioning exercise when a problem occurred.
Emergency services were on standby as the plane circled over East Kent for an hour to get rid of fuel.
There were seven crew and no passengers on board the Fokker 100, which had a problem with its starboard undercarriage.
A spokesman from the airport said they implemented emergency procedures and Kent Fire Brigade was on standby with 13 appliances at the airport.
Kent Police closed the A253 south of the airport and traffic was being diverted.
