Thomsonfly Emergency Landing At MAN Today
 

A Thomsonfly glided into an emergency landing on Runway 2 today and Fire Officers were checking the undercarriage before towing it very slowly back to the terminal.

Does anyone know the cause? Wasnt very dramatic but would be interested to know.

Cheers

Glided? Do you mean it had all engines out?

Oops boobied there!:*

No didnt mean that, meant just it landed gracefully, not totally sure what condition its engines were in but it landed under power.

Sorry for the misunderstanding Heathrow.

hydraulic failure enroute

Manchester does not have a runway 2


Runways are 23 L 23 R 05 L 05 R

Runway 2 for the old at heart used to be S/N if I recall u landed with Jacksons Brick works chimley on your left on 02

Last time I saw it used was a DC3 some XXXX years ago howver for the real old farts do you remember the TWA Packet filiming appraoches on 02 ? If u do have u got your Bus Pass ??

One Took off from MAN recantly and a oven caught fire and diverted to Gatwick.

Wasn't that a TCX A330?

Erm yes it does [see other posts] 23R is r/w 1 23L is r/w 2 simples :ok:


That is a miss-spelling...it's "Chimbly" :E
The Last R/w2 was 10/28, if you want to be pedantic, They used to park F16s , Tornados' and Vulcans there [for the Barton Air Show] Ahhh happy days...
