    Twin emergency landing in Lodi?

    Just got a message from a friend saying he saw a twin circling over Lodi Airports with smoke coming from one engine. If anyone finds out more about this it'd be interesting to know what happened. He said it would make him crap his pants, but that is why you have two engines :rofl:
