Private Jet Makes Emergency Landing After Door Detaches Mid-Air in Nigeria
A private Challenger 604 jet operated by Triton Aviation made an emergency landing at Abuja airport after one of its doors detached mid-air at about 3,500 feet shortly after takeoff. The pilots issued a Mayday call and returned safely with all nine people on board unharmed. The detached door was found near farmland and is under investigation by the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau to determine the cause, which remains unclear.
