A plane made an emergency landing at Boston Logan International Airport Wednesday after the captain suffered a medical episode and was removed from the cockpit, officials said.

The scary situation unfolded on an Air Canada flight 7664 out of Newark, New Jersey, forcing the first officer to take control and divert the plane at 1:37 p.m. — just an hour after take off. 

“During the flight, the captain experienced a medical issue and was removed from the flight deck as per safety protocols,” Air Canada told The Post. 

“The first officer took control of the aircraft and diverted the flight to Boston, where it landed safely,” the company added. 

The plane — a de Havilland Dash 8-400 — successfully landed at around 2 p.m., with ambulances swarming the runway and bringing a stretcher to the cockpit.

The pilot was brought from the plane to the ambulance within minutes of touchdown, officials said.

Both the Massachusetts State Police and the Federal Aviation Administration confirmed that a crew member had experienced a medical emergency, forcing the flight to divert. 

“Air Canada Flight 7664 landed safely at Boston Logan International Airport around 2 p.m. local time on Wednesday, June 24, after the crew reported a pilot medical emergency,” the FAA said. 

Images from local outlets showed Massport Fire Rescue and Boston EMS crews surrounding the plane on the runway before it was towed to a gate. 

Boston EMS officials said that the pilot was rushed to Massachusetts General Hospital.

The twin-turboprop PAL Airlines flight — operated by Air Canada — was traveling from Newark Liberty International Airport to the Halifax Stanfield International Airport, in Nova Scotia.  

There were 61 customers aboard the plane during the time of the incident, Air Canada added.  

No further details were provided on the pilot’s condition.
