The great thing is that they got an emergency landing... All companies have problems at time... My mother was in a Iberia flight that go a problem too. The crew explaining how to brace yourself and prepare for the landing without landing gear. There were fire truck everywere on the landing strip...
But in the end, everything was fine.
Funilly planes are the safest public transports with lifts but all people worry so much about them.

My father before retiring worked for flight transportation technical service in France. After september 11 they did an audit to check if the security check were effective. They asked a consultant to see what he could pass through security.
The guy managed to pass an automatic riffle, a large saber and many other things like that...
The security you have in airport is just an administrative process. This is modern "quality" as it best: what is important is that the process is followed, not that is it effective or not. The process prevent many to carry a bottle of water but don't manage to detect automatic riffle. Still it should prevent an unprepared mad guy or terrorist to pass.... And allow to sell more drink in the airport and planes.
My understanding of this is that to prepare some terrorist attack you tend to need time to prepare, you tend to speak of it to your terrorist collegues, you tend to be very aggressive on some views... And all of this show. The autorities detect you far before you'll be ready and then decide what they should do of you. But the guy that suddenly decide to do something alone... This is harder to detect and prevent. The security in airport should do the job... And motivate the guy to do bad things in other public transportation (train, metro...) instead.
