Emergency Landing

Plane lands with cracked window



A passenger plane has made an emergency landing at Birmingham International Airport after a crack was found in a side window.
The BMI Baby service from Belfast arrived at the airport just after 0900 GMT. No-one was hurt in the incident.
The firm said the aeroplane landed safely and added "at no point were passengers or crew in danger".
The flight from Belfast was destined for Birmingham but an emergency landing was declared as a precaution, it said.
Fire and ambulance services were alerted and sent to the runway. West Midlands Fire Service said it sent three appliances to the scene. BMI Baby said in a statement: "As a precautionary measure, flight WW1022 from Belfast International Airport to Birmingham International Airport, on 19 November 2008, declared an emergency landing due to a cracked side window."
