SUBIC BAY FREEPORT -- A Federal Express cargo plane made an emergency landing at the Subic Bay International Airport (SBIA) here on Friday noon due to a problem with the plane’s landing gear.

Ejuliet Villaran, SBIA operations officer, said the pilot of Air FedEx 8 MD-11 advised them that the plane would return for an emergency landing 30 minutes after leaving the airport at 11 a.m.

Villaran said the plane, which was bound for Hong Kong, landed safely.

She said FedEx officials informed them that the plane’s landing gear had been fixed and it would leave the SBIA for Hong Kong at 4 p.m. Friday
