A plane carrying 10 people was forced to make a ‘belly landing’ at Winnipeg's James Richardson International Airport about 12:15 p.m. today after experiencing problems with its landing gear.

Two pilots and eight passengers were aboard the plane.

With emergency crews watching on the runway, the plane safely landed and there was no sign of fire as it skidded to a stop, according to a witness.

The plane is currently surrounded by rescue vehicles and police. Passengers have been off-loaded, and are being assessed for injuries.

Right, lets start speculating about the engines. Or the autothrottle. Or the rudder maybe.
