The airport has been closed since emergency services were called to the incident involving a Beech B200 Super King shortly before 16:00 BST on Sunday.

Amber and yellow heat health alerts, which had been issued by the UK Health Security Agency for the entirety of England due to the risk of high temperatures affecting vulnerable groups, expired at 09:00 BST.

There was so much going on, in fact, that the game itself only got under way at 20:08 BST - eight minutes after its scheduled kick-off time.

Disruption is expected until 18:00 BST.

Kent Police said it was called at about 12:40 BST to the crash at the crossing in Lower Road, Teynham.
