Aircraft does "belly landing" at PE airport


 A light two-engined aircraft did a wheels-up landing at Port Elizabeth's airport this afternoon.

An airport spokesperson said the Beechcraft King Air 200 twin turboprop did the belly-landing at about 1.30PM.

Less that half an hour later, ground crews were already busy removing the aircraft.

There were two crew members and four passengers on board at the time of the incident, but no-one was injured.

The cause of the landing gear malfunction is not known.
