En route over Germany the flight attendant inadvertently set off a smoke canister, intended for emergencies, in the cabin. The cabin and cockpit filled with smoke, forcing the crew of the Falcon 20 jet to carry out an emergency landing at Kiel. The aircraft landed on runway 26 (4134 feet / 1265 m long) but overran the runway end and fell down an embankment.
