What: An Air India Airbus A330-200 flight en route from Tokyo Narita to Delhi
Where: Delhi
When: Sep 10th 2009 4:55
Who: 122 people on board 111 passengers and 11 crew
Why: The pilot made a precautionary landing in Delhi when ten minutes prior to scheduled landing he had faulty readings of the plane’s hydraulics. The plane landed safely 25 minutes later, and was taxied safely. No injuries were reported.
George’s Point of View
No follow-up yet on this hydraulics issue. Was it the instrumentation? Was there a leak caused by lack of maintenance or too many flight hours squeezed in between maintenance checks? I’m sure Air India passengers would like to know.
