There were no injuries to the 28 passengers and three crew on board, according to Essex Fire and Rescue.
Divisional officer Neil Fenwick, who attended the incident, said: "This had the potential to be an extremely serious incident but everything which should happen in a situation like this did and the plane was able to land safely."
