A RUNWAY at Bournemouth Airport was temporarily closed this afternoon after a light aircraft sustained damage on landing.
The plane sustained only minor damage when it landed at around 2.10pm, and its three passengers were unharmed, but the runway was closed for around an hour while an assessment was carried out.
A spokesman for the airport said there were no delays to flights as the next scheduled arrival was later than 5pm.
