"Welcome to Luton" prank

Air passengers have been left panicked and confused after a "Welcome to Luton" sign appeared near Gatwick Airport.

The 60m (197ft) sign is visible on the approach to Gatwick - which is about 60 miles south of Luton.

Abbey Desmond, from Great Dunmow, tells ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Essex that when she spotted it out of the window on landing, it left her in a "state of panic".

The stunt has been claimed by YouTube prankster Max Fosh, who apologised if "anyone has been seriously thrown".
