TOKYO-<\/strong> On April 1, 2025<\/strong>, All Nippon Airways (NH) or ANA<\/a> flight NH65 operated a Boeing 777-200ER from Tokyo Haneda Airport (HND) to Sapporo’s New Chitose Airport (CTS) when its left engine was shut down mid-flight due to rising oil temperature. The aircraft, registration JA745A, carried 327 people<\/strong> and landed safely at 2:57 p.m. local time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All Nippon Airways confirmed the landing was classified as a normal landing, not an emergency landing<\/strong>, as no priority request was made to air traffic control. A full investigation into the engine malfunction is currently underway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANA Boeing 777 Single-Engine Landing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Flight NH65 departed gate 63 at Haneda Airport (HND) at 1:05 p.m. with 317 passengers and 10 crew members aboard, including 2 pilots<\/a> and 8 cabin crew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the aircraft approached the Sapporo (CTS) area, the oil temperature in the left engine climbed beyond acceptable limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following standard procedure, the crew shut down the affected engine, reported the situation to air traffic control, and continued toward New Chitose Airport (CTS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aircraft touched down at 2:57 p.m. and taxied to gate 8 under its own power 27 minutes later, at 3:24 p.m., after completing a ground inspection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to flight tracking platform Flightradar24, the aircraft circled counterclockwise for approximately 7 minutes over Hidaka Town, Hokkaido, located southeast of New Chitose Airport (CTS), starting at around 2:37 p.m. before beginning its final approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Twin-engine aircraft such as the Boeing 777<\/a> are certified under ETOPS regulations to operate for a defined period on a single engine, making this type of controlled shutdown a manageable and practiced procedure for trained flight crews, AviationWire<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aircraft Configuration and Engine Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Boeing 777-200ER (registration JA745A<\/strong>) used on flight NH65 is configured for domestic operations with 392 seats across two classes: 28 premium class seats and 364 economy class seats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aircraft is powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW4074D engines<\/strong>, a variant derived from the PW4090 series with a thrust rating of 90,000 pounds, managed through a dedicated engine control program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier on April 1, the same aircraft operated flight NH241, departing Tokyo Haneda Airport (HND)<\/a> at 7:30 a.m. for Fukuoka (FUK), followed by the return service NH246, departing Fukuoka (FUK) at 10:15 a.m. back to Haneda (HND), before being assigned to NH65.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impact on Subsequent Flights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The engine shutdown and subsequent inspection caused disruptions to the return schedule. Flight NH68, the return service from Sapporo (CTS) to Haneda (HND) scheduled for departure at 3:30 p.m., was canceled as a direct result of the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All Nippon Airways (NH) confirmed that affected passengers were rebooked on alternative flights and that NH68 was the only additional flight impacted beyond the original incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
