Concorde Makes Emergency Landing in Canada

An Air France Concorde carrying 56 people to New York from Paris landed safely in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Wednesday after one of the supersonic aircraft's engines malfunctioned, the French national airline and the Canadian Coast Guard said.

"The plane landed safely in Halifax.... There has been no request for assistance," said Coast Guard spokesman Harvey Vardy at the Rescue Co-ordination Center in Halifax.
