Filed under: Airlines , News Visitors to an air show at Dayton Int'l Airport got more excitement than they paid for when a Northwest Airlines flight was forced to make an emergency landing on the runway during the festivities. The flight originated in Tampa and was bound for Detroit . The crew decided to land when one of the computers connected to an engine failed. The pilot landed at the nearest airport, which happened to be Dayton, as a precaution. No one was injured. The air show was stopped for about half-an-hour while the plane landed. Spectators were made aware of the situation over the air show's public address system. They applauded when the plane landed (and no doubt had something extra to talk about on the way home). The plane's passengers were not able to hang around for the end of the show, however. They were whisked away to Detroit by bus. Actually, the successful emergency landing might have been a welcome event for Northwest's public relations department. They finally have something to talk about besides bankruptcy and their recent merger with Delta . Photo: Flickr user Sakurako Kitsa Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments ... |
