Chris Brown’s Jet Fills With Smoke Before Making An Emergency Landing

Chris Brown‘s private plane filled with smoke outside of Burbank, California shortly after take-off yesterday and had to make an emergency landing. What a shame. Not that it happened, but that Chris Brown didn’t jump out with a parachute to save himself, only to find that the ripcord was broken. I think you get my point.

From TMZ:

A private jet carrying Chris Brown was forced to make an emergency landing in Burbank yesterday after the cockpit filled with smoke after takeoff … TMZ has learned.

We’ve confirmed … Brown boarded a Gulfstream 3 jet in Burbank and was headed for Teterboro, NJ … so he could attend the Met Gala event.

But sources tell us … roughly 7 to 8 minutes into the flight, everyone on board began to notice smoke filling the plane.

One source told us, “It was A LOT of smoke … everywhere.”

The pilot immediately turned the plane around and performed an emergency landing back at Burbank airport.

We’re told the passengers were scared … but the pilot was cool, calm and collected … and couldn’t have handled the situation better.

Here’s the crazy part — after the plane touched down, Brown decided he STILL wanted to get to the Met Gala event in NY … and boarded ANOTHER private jet within an hour of touching down.

Well, it’s good that no one else was hurt because I have to assume that they’re not all assholes like him. As for Chris himself, well… meh. It’s a shame he wasn’t in the jet alone and that it didn’t go the way of the Bermuda Triangle.

  • I’m all about being mean to Chris Brown, but you don’t even know him. And it’s pretty sinister to wish anyone dead.

  • I’m curious to see what type of article would be on this site if Chris Brown really *did* die.

  • Why would Chris Brown be getting invited to the Met gala in the first place? Same question for Kim Kartrashian.
