BEIJING

DPRK airline operation limited

China will limit the operations of Democratic People's Republic of Korea carrier Air Koryo after one of its aircraft made an emergency landing in China last month, and has told the airline to improve training and maintenance. The plane, a Russian-built Tupolev TU204-300, was flying to Beijing from Pyongyang when it made a forced landing in Shenyang, Liaoning province, because of smoke in the cabin. The plane landed safely and there were no injuries. China's civil aviation regulator said on Wednesday that the smoke came from a call button under a luggage rack.
