A military aircraft replica from World War I made an emergency landing on a street in Antwerp City, near Park Spoor Oost in Borgerhout.

The pilot encountered a technical issue and was forced to land on the street. Koen Gladines tweeted us the following image as the aircraft was towed through the streets back to Deurne Airport.
