BUFFALO, N.Y. — Smoke in the cockpit of a JetBlue plane forced pilots to make an unscheduled landing in Buffalo Wednesday. Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz says the JetBlue flight was heading from Chicago to Boston when it had to divert to the Buffalo-Niagara International airport around 11:40 a.m. Poloncarz says everyone is OK. JetBlue says there was an odor of smoke in the cockpit and the flight was diverted as a precaution. The airline says the plane is being inspected and customers are being put on other flights.
