Usual journalistic hyperbole involving a routine emergency! Any idea what plane and airport?

…and presumably, anywhere “outside London” is seen by the rest of the world as a barren desert, totally devoid of any humanity….
Nooooo. That’s just anywhere north of Stafford.

Forced to land “outside of London” Eh?
Well, that narrows it down to about 99.9997% of the planets surface, or to about 90% of the UK landmass then, guess his pilots must have been spoilt for choice as they no doubt “heroically battled the violently shaking craft as it plunged headlong towards the ground” ๐
…and presumably, anywhere “outside London” is seen by the rest of the world as a barren desert, totally devoid of any humanity….
Poor old Enrique, fancy having to land beyond the bounds of civilisation…’spose he had to pay for a taxi to get him back to the safety of the capital, and no doubt had to call on umpteen personal assistants, flunkies and therapists or ego-massagers in order to calm his shattered nerves and mop his fevered brow after such a shocking incident.
Lucky it was a “survivable” incident then ๐ ๐ ๐
Gawd help us!
Of course, some might cry “publicity stunt”, but not me, oh no sir.

Oh Dear, our Enrique again. I am sure he was on his dadยดs Gulfstream. No surprise about it, always creating news. Some of them, not always true. :diablo:

Don’t worry, I’m not an Enrique fan!:p

Newforest, I must say I’m a little concerned about what you read ๐

Landed “outside of London”?
Must have been a RyanAir flight to London, then! :diablo:

This whole new-fangled flying malarkey is clearly dangerous and must stop immediately. As Benny Hill once said, “If God had meant us to fly, he would have given us the tickets”
