Posted By: Newstalk 1010 · 1/20/2013 4:31:00 PM

No one was hurt when a landing gear wheel fell off an Air Canada Jazz plane after landing at Pearson Airport Sunday.

Jazz spokesperson Manon Stuart says the right wheel on the nose gear loosened while the small propeller plane was taxing to the terminal to finish its flight from North Bay.

Stuart says pilots kept complete control of the plane during the incident, which saw emergency vehicles race out to the plane as a precautionary measure.

72 passengers were aboard.

The airline is looking into why the wheel come loose.
