There are three types of emergency LANDINGS like:
* Forced landing : This is a situation where Air Craft engine fails and Pilot is forced to land the plane in the nearest airport.
* Precautionary landing : This is used when Pilot faces a problem due to severe weather conditions, or being lost in the air space traffic or due to LACK of FUEL or expecting an engine TROUBLE.
* Ditching : This is when where Pilot cannot avoid this situation but to just land on water, which is safer than air bound.
