There are also troubles with a private jet: the successful singer Sir Elton John flew from the UK to New York for a performance at Madison Square Garden, about an hour after takeoff on the transatlantic flight, the singer’s plane suffered a 10,000-foot hydraulic failure and had to make an emergency landing.

The pilot tried to land twice with winds at a speed of 80 km / h, but without success, only on the third attempt did the plane land on the runway after the pilot managed to take control of the situation heroically, made a U-turn and landed on the shores of Southern Ireland. .

According to a Sun report, associates say the singer who was on the plane at the dramatic event was shocked by the incident, but did not want to disappoint fans and boarded a later flight for his New York performance as part of the “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” tour.
