An aircraft has had to make an emergency landing on Blackpool beach.

The aircraft, a Robin R-2120U Alpha light aircraft, reported had to make a force landing after an engine failure.
Registration records shows that it is owned by a High-G Flight Training, which is based at Blackpool Airport.
It is not known whether anyone has been injured. We have approached Lancashire Police and the owners of the aircraft for comment.
