        @BBCBreaking flights would not be disrupted now if Manston Airport, Kent were still open.

        @bbcbreaking Did they report a collision with some fat bloke on a sleigh being pulled by reindeer? Typical excuse...

        @BBCBreaking Hopefully, they'll have everything resolved by then. My question is, why shut the whole airport down? There's more to this

        @MichelleDaviso6 @BBCBreaking it's still on the runway. Gatwick has only one runway.

        @BBCBreaking This a prime example of the need for Manston Airport. Has the long runway necessary for emergency diversions such as this.

        @BBCBreaking it can land safely yet it can't taxi to let people off and let the airport continue as normal? Make a right deal of it we do!

        @cowleylfc take a look at the picture. The undercarriage would have been incredibly hot, thereby risking a fire. I would rather get ppl off

        @cotedazurprop why would the undercarriage be hot, it didn't slide across the ground, it landed on full sets of wheels?
