Truck Gets Stuck Underneath Plane at MAN

An easyJet flight was delayed Friday evening at Manchester Airport (MAN) after a truck became wedged underneath it on the runway. The truck is reportedly used to assist in towing planes and the incident is being attributed to a malfunction with the vehicle’s tow bar, which it uses to connect to the aircraft. No injuries were reported and the passengers were able to disembark safely.
