SYDNEY, N.S. -- Cape Breton Regional Police say no one was hurt when a Porter Airlines flight made an emergency landing Monday in Sydney.

Police say emergency crews were called to the J.A. Douglas McCurdy Airport at around 5 p.m. after the Porter aircraft en route to St. John's, N.L., reported smoke in the cockpit.

Porter spokesman Brad Cicero said the flight, which originated in Halifax, was carrying 66 passengers and four crew members.

Cicero said the plane landed safely and no injuries were reported.

He said a second aircraft was sent from Halifax to pick up the passengers and take them to St. John's.
