Landing Gear Issue Prompts Emergency Landing At MSP
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- No one was hurt Monday night when a small plane made an emergency landing at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.
The plane was supposed to land in Duluth, but was re-routed to the Twin Cities because its front landing gear wasn't working.
The Star Tribune reports the plane landed around 6:30 p.m., using its back wheels, then touching down with just the nose.
Six people were on the flight out of North Carolina. They were all OK.
The runway was closed for a time while the plane was removed, but officials say that did not affect airport operations.
