A Scots flight has been forced to make an impromptu landing after a mid-air emergency was declared onboard.
The Loganair plane was travelling from Aberdeen to Inverness when a 7700 alert was issued during its journey, shortly after departure this afternoon.
A 7700 Squawk code is the signal used by airlines when there is an emergency incident which requires ground assistance but the plane is already in the air.
The flight was spotted circling in the air near Aberdeen airport. Loganair told the Record that the incident came about as a result of a technical issue, but that it did not constitute a full-blown emergency.
There were no passengers onboard at the time of the event. The aircraft landed safely and the incident was stood down shortly afterwards, according to a representative from Aberdeen Airport.
A Loganair spokesperson added: “A positioning flight with no passengers onboard enroute from Aberdeen to Inverness made a precautionary return to Aberdeen following a technical issue.
"The aircraft landed safely without incident. At no time did Loganair crew issue any emergency.”
