A Turkish airline's passenger plane TK45 en route from Cape Town to Istanbul made an emergency landing on Thursday evening in Johannesburg, South Africa, causing no injuries.
While climbing out of Cape Town's runway, the flight crew failed to retract the plane's landing gear, said the Aviation Herald, an aviation incidents website.
"The plane had problems of its landing gear, but landed at 22:36 p.m. (2030 GMT) at OR Tambo with no injuries and followed by emergency vehicles," local aviation expert Stanley Koepka told Xinhua.
The problem of the landing gear is currently under investigation by local engineers.
