Multiple Delta Air Lines Flights Make Emergency Landings
Three Delta Air Lines flights were forced to make emergency landings between April 6 and 10, due to cabin pressurization issues, according to Aviation A to Z. Thankfully, nobody was hurt during these incidents, and all of the flights were diverted or flew back to their departure airports, while crews employed emergency procedures to make sure passengers remained safe. The latest incident happened on April 10. According to WWJ Newsradio 950, a flight going from London, England, to Detroit was diverted to Dublin, Ireland, because of a loss of cabin pressure. The flight also had to descend to a lower altitude, from 37,000 feet to 10,000 feet. One passenger on the flight was Genesee County Sheriff's Sgt. Jason Gould, who spoke with WWJ Newsradio 950 about the incident. "I was watching the altimeter on the video screen that Delta provides, and I could see that we were at 37,000 feet and then we dropped to 20,000 feet, and then down to 10,000 feet before anyone said anything," Gould told the outlet. Then, he said the plane's captain came over the loud speakers "and said that we had a 'maintenance issue', and it was routine, that they weren't going to be able to fly over the Atlantic and that we were going to divert to Dublin." He added that nobody panicked upon the news and that there was no "screaming, and no oxygen masks dropped from the celling; nothing like that happened. But we did stay at the 10,000 feet." The Detroit flight follows other recent events in which Delta planes were forced to make emergency landings, including flights from Mexico City International Airport to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, and Boston Logan International Airport to Tampa International Airport, according to Aviation A to Z. "The timing of these three pressurization incidents has raised questions within the aviation community," Aviation A to Z adds, "though Delta has emphasized its commitment to safety throughout each occurrence." In each emergency landing, Delta workers employed their emergency response protocols and the aircrafts landed safely.

Crews rescue person from high rise building fire
A person has been rescued from a high rise building after a fire was thought to have broken out in a kitchen. Firefighters were called to a second floor flat on Baxter Avenue in Southend, Essex, at 21:00 GMT on Friday. A person, who was suffering from smoke inhalation, was rescued and left in the care of the ambulance service. Station manager, Jason Gould, said: "It's really important to keep your hobs, ovens and grills clean as a build-up of fat and grease can ignite a fire." Mr Gould thanked residents of the flats for following the building's "stay put policy" in the event of a fire, which helped crews get to the flat. "Our firefighters worked quickly to contain the fire and smoke to the kitchen area, which prevented damage throughout the flat," he said.
