Trainer Plane Makes Emergency Landing at Khajuraho

A trainer plane had to make an emergency landing at Khajuraho airport because its right rear wheel wouldn't deploy.

The pilot informed air traffic control (ATC) after taking off for a training flight.

The pilot and trainee pilot were safe.

The plane circled for two hours to exhaust fuel before landing on two wheels.

Emergency precautions were taken, including spraying foam.

The DGCA is set to investigate the cause of the wheel issue.
