Investigation after Belfast plane damages roof
14.09.09
An investigation is under way after people living near Belfast City Airport claimed a low-flying jet smashed roof tiles on a house, the BBC reports. Katrin Irvine who lives directly beneath the flight path said she heard a ‘big bang’ at about 13:00 on Sunday. About 30 tiles had come off her roof and landed in several gardens.
Mrs Irvine said: ‘Some of the neighbours told me a plane had come over and it looked like some kind of backdraft had taken off part of my roof.’ A spokesman for the airport said that they would investigate the report, adding: ‘All aircraft approaching the airfield do so in accordance with strict Civil Aviation Authority regulations.'
