#Showbiz: Fire scare on Aquaman Momoa's airplane

KUALA LUMPUR: Is Aquaman star Jason Momoa “too hot” to handle?

A private airplane carrying Momoa, 39, recently made an emergency landing after a fire scare.

Fox News reported today that it was forced to make an emergency landing in Palm Springs, California, while on the way to Phoenix, Arizona, the United States yesterday.

The actor, who documented the incident on Instagram said: “We got ourselves a slight delay — half an hour out in Palm Springs and the plane wanted to start a fire. So good old fire department, gotta love them. Looks like we’re driving!”

He then added: “Some friends came to pick me up.”

As it turned out, the Cessna Citation 560 XL did not catch fire.

The Palm Springs Firefighters’ Instagram account posted a photo with the Hawaiian actor, and said: “Had an Aircraft emergency today. Reported engine fire with @prideofgypsies on board. ARFF Engineer Andy Meza told his crew, ‘Not on my watch boys, not on my watch’. Turned out to be a false alarm but the ARFF lads were on the ready. It’s always nice to meet cool people.”
