Friends stars' private jet makes emergency landing

Sunday, 17 February 2019 09:20

Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox's private plane was forced to make an emergency landing after it lost a wheel during take-off.

The Friends stars were taking a private jet to Cabo San Lucas with a number of pals for Jennifer's 50th birthday celebrations.

According to the FAA, the plane made it all the way to Mexican airspace after departing Los Angeles International Airport but a decision was made to turn back amid fears that there could be problems during landing.

They had to circle the area for three hours to burn off enough fuel to land safely in Ontario, California.

All of the women on board - including Aniston, Cox, actress Amanda Anka and screenwriter Molly Kimmel - were stuck on the Gulfstream Aerospace IV plane for two hours after the emergency landing.

They later disembarked and made their way to a bigger plane, which eventually took off for Cabo, TMZ reports.
