Chinese Plane Veers Off

A Tibet Airlines plane caught fire on Thursday at a Chinese airport after veering off the runway, but all passengers and crew were "safely evacuated", the airline said.

A Xiamen Air aircraft veered off a rain-soaked runway on landing at the Philippine capital's main airport just before midnight, causing widespread flight disruptions on Friday due to a temporary runway closure, officials said.
