Seems the pilot was alerted to a suspicious device. It's down now at Manchester airport and all other flights diverted to Leeds.

A plane had to be diverted to Gatwick Airport last night after a woman allegedly unleashed a foul-mouthed tirade and threw her prosthetic leg at cabin crew.
A Sussex police spokesman said trouble started when the woman, 48, began "swearing blue murder" and throwing food at staff on the Thomson Airlines flight 297.
The captain became so alarmed by her behaviour that he diverted the plane, which was flying from Enfidha in Tunisia and destined for Edinburgh, to Gatwick.
Holidaymaker John Smith, 48, from Falkirk, said: âWe were coming back from Tunisia when this lady kicked off. She was off her face on drink.
âShe was shouting âI want cigarettesâ and that she wanted a parachute to jump off the plane.
âShe slapped a young girl and then assaulted the cabin crew with her prosthetic leg.
They took it off her, but she started kicking them with her good leg.
âIt sounds funny, but it was not a laughing matter at the time. It was serious. She was totally drunk. It was pretty shocking.â
Passengers said the woman had been involved in an argument at the resort in Tunisia and the bust-up had escalated on the bus to the airport.
At Gatwick airport, waiting police officers escorted the woman off the plane and took statements from passengers.
