Two people, including the pilot, have walked away from a light aircraft which landed at Leeds Bradford International Airport with reported nose wheel problems.
The aircraft landed at 10:04 BST on Saturday and was towed off the runway.
A fire crew was on stand-by but was not needed. The runway was closed for a time, but has since reopened.
A spokesperson said there was a minor delay and one flight from Belfast was diverted to Manchester.
An eyewitness who saw the plane being towed, but did not want to be named, said: "I saw it being escorted by the fire service. To me the propellers looked bent and damaged."
