Aircraft Accident at Seville Airport
45 people were injured on Saturday (18th March 2006) after an Air Algerie plane veered off the runway.
Luckily none of the injuries are serious and a spokesman for Seville San Pablo Airport told a waiting Press Conference that the accident was due to faulty landing gear on the plane.
Seville Airport was closed for a while and around 40 flights were diverted but all is back to normal now.
The passengers, mostly Spaniards, just ended their visit to Algerian camps near Tindouf for Western Sahara refugees. Enditem

Thank you for posting this. My friends were held up for two days in Seville - not a bad thing but there was no information that I could find that mentioned this accident or the result on local airport traffic and therefore traffic to Madrid and NYC. Does anyone know a source of realtime international airport info similiar to what we have in the USA?
Hi
Unfortunately the only real source of information comes out of the Spanish Airport Authority Website.
AENA but they dont seem to have a "live" flow of info as you would expect!
