She said passengers were aware that something was amiss and that emergency personnel and fire trucks were on standby at the airport.</p><blockquote><p>Despite the uncertainty, she praised the way the situation was handled on board.</p></blockquote><p>“The pilots handled the situation exceptionally well - calm, professional and in complete control. Their skill and professionalism certainly helped reassure us.”</p><p>The aircraft eventually landed safely at about 09:25.</p><p>“After a few very tense moments, we landed safely,” De Beer said. “Huge respect to the pilots, crew and emergency teams. Definitely an experience I won’t forget anytime soon!”</p><p>The incident was described in a social media post by George Aviation later on Saturday. They reported that the aircraft appeared to have experienced a flap deployment issue and that emergency services were on standby for the landing. The aircraft landed without incident and taxied under its own power.</p><p><em>George Herald</em> is following up with Airports Company South Africa (Acsa) for further details on the incident.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><strong fr-original-style=""><em fr-original-style="">‘We bring you the latest Garden Route, Hessequa, Karoo news’</em></strong> </p> </div> 2553 </div> 2554</div> 2555<hr /> 2556<!--Article Content | Location Section--> 2557<!--Article Content | Video Content Section--> 2558<!--Article Content | Gallery Section--> 2559<!--Article Content | Social Media CTA--> 2560<!--Article Content | Article Tags Section--> 2561<div class="row article_content" style="margin-top: 25px; margin-bottom: 15px;"> 2562 <div class="col-lg-24"> 2563 <div class="article-content-wrapper text-align"> 2564 <p class="text-align"> 2565 <span class="">Read more about:</span> 2566 <!--Options Pieces CTA tag--> 2567 <span class="label label-danger label-sm" style="border-radius: 0; margin-right: 2px;"> 2568 <a href="/Search/boeing%20737" style="text-decoration: none; color: #fff !important;"> 2569 boeing 737 2570 </a> 2571 </span> 2572 <span class="label label-danger label-sm" style="border-radius: 0; margin-right: 2px;"> 2573 <a href="/Search/flysafair" style="text-decoration: none; color: #fff !important;"> 2574 flysafair 2575 </a> 2576 </span> 2577 <span class="label label-danger label-sm" style="border-radius: 0; margin-right: 2px;"> 2578 <a href="/Search/george" style="text-decoration: none; color: #fff !important;"> 2579 george 2580 </a> 2581 </span>
