Not a Drama so no need to panic
Continental A/C just diverted to LGW from the Cumbria/Irish Sea vicinity owing to minor flight control problems. Has declared an emergency owing to overweight landing at LGW. Asked for emergency equipment.
PIC states " has full control and flight willl proceed normally"
Would be interested to hear, in due course, that they got down OK
Certainly sounded cool & collected and in control of situation
