**EXCLUSIVE**
Disaster was narrowly averted when a flight full of holiday makers sprang a heavy fuel leak.
The Thomas Cook Boeing 757 was forced to make a dramatic emergency landing as hundreds of gallons of fuel gushed from the right hand wing.
Flight 5739 was carrying 231 passengers from Turin's Caselle airport in Italy to Birmingham, UK, on Sunday.
Luckily the pilot spotted the problem and alerted the control tower minutes after take-off. Ground officials had already noticed the emergency and despatched fire crews to meet the airplane.
The fuel lost in the leak would have meant the aircraft would not have been able to reach Birmingham so the pilot kept the plane flying for half an hour to lighten it before touching down.
Air traffic controllers were forced to close the airport for over an hour to clean the fuel spilt on the runways after the plane landed at 2.45pm.
The drama was caught on camera by plane spotter Paolo Migliavacca, 42, from Torino.
He explains: "I am an aviation enthusiast and every Sunday I take some pictures at the airport as it is a good period with a lot of winter charter flights.
"The event happened very quickly. As the plane took off I noticed something usual about what I thought was the contrail. Usually this kind of contrail flys above the wing but this one was below.
"As the aircraft was climbing the contrail was more evident as you can see from the pictures and at that time I realised that that was not regular. That's why I decided to remain there in order to wait to see if the plane came back as I was quite sure that something strange was happening."
