After Karachi landing, Mumbai bound plane pane cracks
After Karachi landing, Mumbai bound plane pane cracks
A SpiceJet flight from Kandla, Gujarat, landed safely in Mumbai after outer pane of a windshield cracked midair on Tuesday.
New Delhi: ASpiceJet flight from Kandla, Gujarat, landed safely in Mumbai after outer pane of a windshield cracked midair on Tuesday.
"On July 5, 2022, SpiceJet Q400 aircraft was operating SG 3324 (Kandla - Mumbai). During cruise at FL230, P2 side windshield outer pane cracked. Pressurisation was observed to be normal. The aircraft landed safely in Mumbai," a SpiceJet spokesperson said. The midair scare happened on the same day when another SpiceJet flight from Delhi to Dubai had to be diverted to Karachi after its fuel indicator started malfunctioning. With these, the low-cost airline suffered the seventh incident of technical malfunction in the last 17 days.
The DGCA is investigating the incident that led to the Dubai-bound aircraft's landing in Karachi. The Boeing 737 Max aircraft started showing unusual fuel quantity reduction from its left tank when it was mid-air, officials said. On June 19, an engine on SpiceJet's Delhi-bound aircraft carrying 185 passengers caught fire soon after taking off from the Patna airport, following which it made an emergency landing within minutes. The engine malfunctioned because of a bird hit. In another incident the same day, a flight for Jabalpur had to return to Delhi due to cabin pressurisation issues.
