Plane Makes Emergency Landing in Buffalo

Write: Clark [2011-05-20]
A small crack in the windshield forced a Boston-to-Chicago flight with 176 people on board to make an unscheduled landing in Buffalo.
The Buffalo News reports that United Airlines Flight 881 landed without incident at 10:34 a.m. on Nov. 21 at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport.
Airport spokesman C. Douglas Hartmayer said there was no problem for passengers on the Boeing 757 and the airline was arranging for another plane to take them to Chicago.
Hartmayer said the airport's Crash Fire Rescue Unit was placed on standby but was not needed.
