A flight from the Shetland Islands was forced to make an emergency landing due to an issue.
LoganAir's flight LM346 was diverted to Aberdeen International Airport amid a technical problem.
The aircraft - which was bound for Glasgow Airport - departed Sumburgh in Shetland at around 12.25pm on Tuesday, July 23.
However, it was then shortly diverted to Aberdeen on the east coast of Scotland amid the situation.
Confirming the emergency landing, the airline said the "safety and wellbeing" of its customers and crews is extremely important to them.
Currently, it is unclear what the technical issue was.
A spokesperson for LoganAir said: “We can confirm Flight LM346 from Sumburgh to Glasgow was diverted to Aberdeen for a precautionary landing following a technical issue.
"The safety and wellbeing of our customers and crew is of the utmost importance to us.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
