A United Airlines flight made an emergency landing and blew out two tyres at New Jersey’s Newark Airport yesterday, causing the airport to suspend flights briefly. Flight 2098 took off from New York City’s
LaGuardia Airport bound for Houston and a short time later experienced hydraulic problems, prompting the emergency landing. The Federal Aviation Administration said the crew of the Airbus A319 reported a
brake problem and that two left main tyres blew out when landing. There were conflicting reports about injuries, with United Airlines saying no one was injured and security authorities saying a few “minor
injuries” were reported.
