Hi All

Emergency landing at LBA this lunchtime.

Just shortly after 12:55 BST (Sunday 07/06/09) An Air Southwest operating flight WOW524L from Newquay to Newcastle diverted into Leeds Bradford Airport

The flight was been operated by a Dash 8-Q200 aircraft (Registration G-WOWB), and carrying 43 souls on board.

The crew reported that they had, had a low oil pressure warning while in the cruise. Aircraft was cleared to descended to 5,000ft and direct into LBA hold. Once reaching the hold the crew officially declared a PAN reporting that they had a low oil warning light on the number 2 engine and would be landing as normal on a visual approach with only one engine

After landing the aircraft taxied to stand as normal and the incident was classed as closed at 13:20
