Found this :

Hollywood star John Travolta was forced to make an emergency landing in Ireland on Monday while piloting his private jet from Germany to New York. The actor, who was jetting back to the US after promoting his new movie Wild Hogs in Germany, landed safely at Shannon Airport after his Boeing 707 suffered “technical difficulties” mid-flight. He was said to be unhurt but shaken by the dramatic incident. Nevertheless, the 53-year-old hired another plane and completed the journey, while his jet was grounded for repairs. A source reveals, “If he hadn’t made it to Shannon, it could have been the end of him. You could tell that he was very relieved.” A spokesman for Shannon Airport confirms, “John Travolta was diverted to Shannon due to technical difficulties.” Eight years ago the star suffered a similar mid-air drama when his plane lost an engine and he was forced to make an emergency landing in Boston.

So he has left that gourgous 707 in shannon!!

Good news Lukey, bit confusing when your post is timed three minutes before the landing! (Flypast time is GMT and you are now in BST). Anyway, what plans after Prestwick, surely not across the Atlantic with wheels down? :confused:

Wups sorry about that.

IM guessing shes in at prestwick for some maintaince. Wheels down now ive heard of that been done in country That 747SP in South Africa a few years back but across the atlantic thats going to cut down her speed a bit.

She arrived at Prestwick at 13.00 hours. It said on PPRUNE she was making the journey with her landing gear down all the way.
