Aero Contractor Abuja-Lagos flight was Thursday
delayed from landing at the local wing of the Murtala
Muhammed Airport, Lagos, when an obstruction on
the runaway prevented the plane from landing when
the tyres were almost touching the runway.
The pilot had to abort the landing and the plane with
more than 150 passengers on board hovered the
airport before it eventually landed.
One of the passengers on board the flight, Prof.
Ishaq Lakin Akintola told Vanguard on phone that
the pilot informed the passengers that he was not
sure whether the obstacle was “a cow or a car”.
and he needed to take off again because “there was
something on the tarmac” which
he could not avoid.
More details soon
