DAYTON, OHIO — An airport official says a Northwest Airlines airplane has made an emergency landing at Dayton International Airport, temporarily halting the Ohio city’s air show.
City aviation director Iftikhar Ahmad says the twin-engine Boeing 757 was en route from Tampa, Fla. to Detroit Sunday when one of its engines failed. Ahmad says the crew made an emergency landing at Dayton as a precaution.
Nobody was injured.
Northwest Airlines spokeswoman Leslie Parker said she could not immediately comment on the emergency landing.
The Dayton Air Show was temporarily halted while the plane landed but resumed less than an hour later.
Officials do not yet know what caused the engine to fail.
