And from IOM online site:

EMERGENCY services have been called to an incident at Isle of Man Airport.
It is understood to involve a plane belonging to Flybe and emergency slides have been deployed. Passengers are stood nearby on the grass.

Ambulance operations manager Ray Beattie said emergency services were deployed at just after 1pm after receiving reports of an aircraft coming in to land with smoke in the cockpit.

There were no reports of any casualties.

Flights out of the airport are being delayed.

The road is closed between the Whitestone pub in Ballasalla and Janet's Corner in Castletown.

More details to follow.
