Tom Daley Plane Forced to Make Emergency Landing in Russia

Olympic diver Tom Daley was involved in a dramatic mid-air emergency yesterday after his plane was forced to land in Siberia with a 'technical fault'.
He and his partner Dustin Lance Black were among 301 people aboard a Virgin Atlantic Airbus A340 which had to put down in the Russian city of Irkutsk, on a flight from Shanghai to London.
 
Daley, who was returning after competing in the world diving championships in Shanghai, wrote on Instagram: 'Just had to make an emergency landing in Irkutsk, Russia on the way back from Shanghai. Here’s the pic of the fuel dump before landing.'
