Airbus forced into emergency landing in Singapore
The engine on a Cathay Pacific Airbus A330-300 has caught fire in mid-air, forcing the plane to make an emergency landing in Singapore. No one was injured in the incident.
Flight CX715 took off from Singapore heading to the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, but soon turned around after engine trouble and landed, according to AP.
Firefighters extinguished the fire and normal flight operations resumed on the runway about an hour later.
