Light aircraft removed from runway at airport

Normal operations have resumed

The main runway at Ronaldsway Airport has now reopened following an incident with a light aircraft.

Both runways were temporarily shut for around an hour as the plane landed with a burst tyre.

The airport has confirmed the aircraft has now been successfully and safely moved from the runway and normal operations have resumed.

A spokesperson has apologised for any delays to flights and say they 'appreciate [passengers] patience and understanding'.
