Arnold's plane makes emergency landing

Friday, June 19, 2009 | 8:42 PM

LOS ANGELES -- Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's plane has been diverted to
the Van Nuys Airport in Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley because of
smoke in the cockpit.

Spokesman Aaron McLear says the jet was about 10 minutes away from
landing at the Santa Monica Airport Friday evening when the pilot
reported smoke coming from an instrument panel.

McLear says the pilot made a quick and steep landing at 6:23 p.m. Los
Angeles City fire crews met the jet on the runway. There were no
flames and no one was injured.

Schwarzenegger tweeted about the diversion, calling it "a little
adventure," and posting a link to a photo of the jet on his Twitter
feed.

"All's ok, though," he wrote.
