A Flybe plane from Edinburgh has crashed off a runway in the Netherlands.

The landing gear of flight BEI284 reportedly failed on landing at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam at 5pm local time on Thursday.

Nobody was injured in the crash and passengers were taken into the terminal by bus.

A Schipol Airport spokesman tweeted: "The landing gear of a Flybe airplane collapsed during touchdown.

"All passengers are brought [sic] to the terminal by bus at the moment."

The 59 passengers on board the plane later left the airport to continue their journeys, Flybe confirmed.

A spokesman for the airline said all of the passengers will be contacted and offered support by the airline team, which will remain in contact with them over the next few days.

Flybe chief executive Christine Ourmieres-Widener said: "Our pilots regularly train for situations such as this in simulators at our training academy in Exeter.

"Our cabin crew are also fully trained to deal with these situations professionally.

"We have sent a specialist team to offer assistance to the investigation and we will now do all we can to understand the cause of this incident."

Earlier on Thursday, a Flybe plane flying between Glasgow and Birmingham was forced to make an emergency landing after shutting down one of its engines due to a technical fault.
