Firefighters were scrambled to Stansted Airport on Sunday (July 24) after reports of a private jet with brake and hydraulic problems while in the air.

Two crews from Dunmow, one from Stansted, one from Newport and an off-road vehicle from Manningtree attended the airport at 11.43am to assist on-site fire officers.

The jet dumped fuel and landed without incident at 1.11pm.
