BMI 133 in emergency landing

Last night's flight BMI 133, operated by A320 G-MIDP from LHR to DUB made an emergency landing at Dublin after the pilot reported smoke in the cockpit. The aircraft landed safely shortly after 20.50 with emergency services in attendance. The aircraft was towed to parking where the 94 passengers and the crew made a normal exit from the aircraft. The aircraft was subsequently inspected by BMI engineers and has reentered service. The Air Accident Investigation Unit has commenced an investigation into the incident.
