Emergency landing:
An All Nippon Airways passenger plane made an emergency landing at west Japan's Osaka airport Friday morning after the cockpit was filled with smoke while in flight, Kyodo News reported, saying no one was injured.

According to Kyodo, the plane, a twin-propeller Bombardier, which was bound for Kochi Prefecture with 60 passengers and four crew members, returned to the airport at 11:09 a.m. (0209 GMT), but there was no fire onboard.

The pilot told the airport's air controller at around 11 a.m. that the plane, ANA Flight 1609, was returning to the airport because the smoke from somewhere in the plane has entered the cockpit through a duct.

The runway was closed for about 30 minutes while the plane stayed on the runway and all of the passengers and crew members were evacuated.

Chemical fire engines were mobilized to the scene and investigators are checking the plane on the runway.
