A Boeing 737 plane was forced to make an emergency landing in Japan this morning just minutes after taking off.
The United Airlines Flight with 50 passengers onboard returned to Fukuoka Airport before the runway was closed for routine safety checks.
The incident is the fourth Boeing related incident in just three days.
Police have said that nobody was injured and it is believed the cause may have been an irregularity with a wing flap.

It comes just one day after a Boeing 737 skidded off an airport runway and its wing burst into flames.
The horror took place at Blaise Diagne Airport near the Senegalese capital of Dakar on Thursday, with footage showing the Transair plane covered in fire-suppressing foam.
Eleven people were injured when a failed takeoff led to it hurtling off the tarmac and crashing into a bush.
