A Ryanair flight has declared a mid-air emergency over UK airspace and is currently the most-tracked flight in the world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The Ryanair 737-800 with the registration EI-EMD has turned around over the North Sea off the coast of the north east of England after squawking 7700, meaning to declare a mid-air emergency.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The plane was undertaking a flight from Manchester to Oslo, but only made it around a third into the flight before undertaking the U-turn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It is fairly common for planes to squawk 7700, with it happening multiple times around the world each day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

It is not known yet the reason for declaring a mid-air emergency, although these kind of incident are fairly common and could be anything from a technical issue to a sick passenger.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The plane is currently the most tracked in the world on Flightradar24.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The aircraft appears to be returning to Manchester Airport.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
