KLM MD11 emergency landing
A KLM MD11 (flight KL763) has made an emergency landing in Shannon because of fuel shortage. It was underway from Willemstad (Curacao) to Schiphol Airport when the pilot discovered the fuel shortage. It was too late to return to Willemstad and the pilot decided therefore to make an emergency landing in Shannon to refuel. The 294 passengers arrived safely on Schiphol with 2,5 hours delay.
