An Air Nostrum plane was forced to make an emergency landing at Almería airport on Monday evening, September 5, due to a suspected engine fault.
The aircraft – an ATR 72-600 powered by two turboprops – was due to land at Almería from Madrid in any event, but a warning signal that appeared on the plane’s control panel as it approached the airport meant that emergency protocol was activated.
The plane landed safely a few minutes ahead of schedule just before 8pm.
