Holiday jet smoke scare
Holidaymakers were evacuated from a Tenerife-bound jet at Manchester Airport today after a smoke scare in the cockpit.
The ******** plane, carrying 167 passengers, was preparing to head to the runway when the pilot noticed fumes escaping from beneath his seat.
Firemen wearing full brathing apparatus were put on alert and found the problem had been caused by an overheating battery.
The holidaymakers had to wait for another plane.
