RE: Accident at EGBB – Birmingham
Right got more detail – it was a B767 inbound from Manchester that has run off a high speed taxiway. It sounds to me as it was a positioning aircraft that it was probably a britannia plane, maybee a MyTravel a/c but less likely. Only the flight crew were on board and nobody was injured.
Many inbound flights are been diverted but a limited number of outbounds (likely to b smaller a/c) are continuing at a limited rate. Likely airports for Diversions if any East Mids, Coventry, Manchester and possibly the London Airports.
See what else comes up
