Small jet makes emergency landing in Calif.

ONTARIO, Calif. — A small jet carrying 24 passengers from San Francisco made an emergency landing at a Southern California airport after its front landing gear failed to deploy.

Ontario International Airport spokesman Harold Johnson says nobody was hurt Sunday when the SkyWest Airlines aircraft was forced to land with its nose gear up.

Three crew members were on board.

Johnson says the jet is a Bombardier-manufactured CL601R, which seats about 50 people.
