Clur Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Hi, has anyone heard anything about this? I thought I heard that a plane has had a mishap on the runway - caught the very tail end of the news on the radio in the background. Hope passengers and crew are all ok. I am meant to fly out to Germany tonight for work, so wondering what's going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisnrob Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 A British Airways flight has crash-landed. One of the runways is closed. Doesn't say anything about how it affects later flights.

Fabergé Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Just been watching some of the footage on BBC news 24. Sounds like there were only 3 minor injuries thankfully & everyone was safely evacuated. Must have been very scary! You could see gouges in the grass before the start of the runway where it touched down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clur Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 Thanks - couldn't find it on the news page. Thank Heavens no one has been seriously hurt. Not worried about any delays, they pale into insignificance! Will call the airline before I leave though in case of any cancellations. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
