Aberdeen Airport flight emergency
26.11.09
A full emergency was called at Aberdeen Airport yesterday morning after a plane’s windscreen cracked in mid-air, the Evening Express reports. Police, fire and ambulance crews were scrambled to the airport as the Eastern Airways plane headed back to the city.
The drama began about 10 minutes after the Saab 2000 aircraft took off from the airport, when its windscreen cracked in mid-air. An airline spokeswoman said: ‘Shortly after departure from Aberdeen the captain reported a small crack in the windscreen’s multi-layered toughened glass.’
All 38 passengers boarded another aircraft at Aberdeen Airport yesterday after landing and took off at 09:50, arriving in Scatsta in Shetland at 10:50, the newspaper reports.
