SAS plane made emergency landing in Denmark (Source:TT Gothenburg)

A passenger jet from SAS , enroute from London UK to Gothenburg made
an emergency landing in Aaalborg, Denmark, after that a dense smoke
odeur had spread in the cabin.

The landing at the Aalborg airport was uneventful and the passengers
were expected to be provided with another aircraft, for proceeding to
their dest. (Gothenburg).

The plane , with 101 pax on board, was expected to arrive in Goth. at
10.10 pm local time, but was instead forced to execute a so-called
precautionary landing in Aalborg. The airport´s fire brigade and
ambulances were standing by, there.

The situation was very uncomfortable, but none of the people on board
panic´d , says passenger Anneli Young.

-It started to smell from melted plastics inside the cabin. It was an
intense odeur. The cabin crew was seen running forth and back in the
aisles with fire extinguishers.

Acc. to Ulf Thorné, media spokes man within SAS, the safety landing
was fully according to the protocol.
-In a situation like this, it is mandatory to land as soon as
possible. It is not possible to make a risk assessment, while still
being air borne, he stated.

The plane was held at the airport, where a full technical inspection
now will be carried out.
