MANHATTAN- For the second time this week an airplane made an emergency landing in Kansas.

Just before 5 p.m. on Thursday an emergency alert was issued to fire and rescue in Riley County to respond to the Manhattan Regional Airport.

An American Airlines flight was inbound for landing and had a warning light come on for a possible a hydraulic failure.

Fire crews and medical response vehicles arrived prior to the landing to assist and at approximately 5:15p.m. flight AA3559 from Dallas did land safely, according to Deputy Fire Chief Ryan Almes.

For precautionary reasons, the aircraft was towed to the parking apron near the terminal where passengers safely exited the plane.

On Monday at 7a.m., an American Eagle regional jet carrying 55 people made an emergency landing in Wichita after a smoke alarm for the jet’s baggage compartment was activated.

A Wichita Airport Authority spokeswoman says the jet was flying from Grand Island, Nebraska, to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport when the alarm sounded.
