| Helios plane safe after diversion |
| 2005-08-19 |
| A plane operated by the firm involved in a Greek air disaster had to be diverted from Luton to Stansted airport after the pilot feared a problem. The Helios Airways Boeing 737, with 177 passengers on board, made a safe landing at Stansted in Essex on Friday. Stansted Airport said: "The pilot thought he had a flaps problem but the aircraft landed all right." Last Sunday, 121 passengers and crew aboard Flight 522 died when the Helios plane crashed outside Athens. |
