[align=center][color=#696969]A LOT Polish Airways Boeing 787 made an emergency landing at Glasgow Airport a few hours ago. The flight was from Chicago to Warsaw with 260 people on-board. The airline has released a statement on their facebook page:

"[i]załoga lotu LOT4 otrzymała komunikat wygenerowany przez system przeciwpożarowy w luku bagażowym.
Zgodnie z przepisami bezpieczeÅ„stwa maszyna musiaÅ‚a lÄ…dować na najbliższym lotnisku, by można byÅ‚o przeprowadzić kontrolÄ. ZaÅ‚oga zgÅ‚osiÅ‚a wieży w Glasgow taka potrzebÄ i za jej zgoda wylÄ…dowaÅ‚a bezpiecznie na tamtejszym lotnisku.
Po bezpiecznym lądowaniu, samolot dokołował do wyznaczonego stanowiska i został poddany kontroli straży pożarnej. Strażacy nie stwierdzili ani pożaru ani dymu. Załoga cały czas informowała pasażerów o sytuacji.
Wszyscy pasażerowie sÄ… w tej chwili na pokÅ‚adzie pod opiekÄ… zaÅ‚ogi. MaszynÄ sprawdzajÄ… mechanicy lotniczy.
Przygotowujemy siÄ na ewentualność powrotu pasażerów do Warszawy innÄ… maszynÄ….[/i]"

Translation: Flight crew on flight 4 received a message warning of fire in the hold. In accordance with the safety regulations, the aircraft had to land at the nearest airport so that the aircraft could be inspected. The crew informed Glasgow tower controllers and made them aware of the situation. After a safe landing, the aircraft taxied to a designated position and has since been inspected by fire crews. The fire crews found no fire or smoke. The crew kept the passengers informed at all times. All passengers are currently on board and in the care of the crew. The aircraft is being inspected by engineers. We are preparing for the possibility of returning passengers to Warsaw on another aircraft.*

The BBC has reported that there had "[i]been a smell of smoke on board the aircraft[/i]" Although checks have proven otherwise. Passengers have since left the aircraft.
