DIVERTED TUI 787-9 (Manchester AirPort)

Friday 19th April I was at Manchester Airport, as I arrived this TUI 787-9 Dreamliner which was headed to Punta Cana was diverted back to Manchester Airport due to reports of smoke in the flight deck.
It became the number one most viewed aircraft on flight radar with near 14,000 thousand people watching.
It was met with fire crews on the tarmac and landing traffic at the airport was out in a holding pattern and for a short while had to land on 23L.
Everyone survived with no reported injuries.
