Spitfire shuts down East Midlands Airport.


A Spitfire crash-landed on 7 January 2013, closing a major airport and causing flight delays.

The vintage aircraft, famed for its use by the RAF during the Second World War, blew its front wheel as it touched down at East Midlands Airport.

While the aircraft’s pilot, the only person on board, emerged unscathed, his plane was stranded on the runway.
